    IAI signs a 350$ Million Special Mission Aircraft related Contract with Major European Country

    Jun 8, 2020 - Special Mission Aircraft which are designed and developed in IAI are used primarily for collecting strategic intelligence. Israel Aerospace Industries has received a 350$ Million Special Mission Aircraft related contract from a major European country. The Contract will be executed by IAI's ELTA Systems, a global leader in the Special Mission Aircraft domain. IAI delivered Special Mission Aircraft to Israel Defence Forces (IDF) and numerous countries worldwide, and are considered to be strategic assets. IAI is one of a select few companies which have these technology capabilities in-house. IAI achieved a major breakthrough in Special Mission Aircraft thanks to advanced sensor miniaturization technology coupled with Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning software applications, allowing high-performance business jets to be used as Special Mission Aircraft. Previously, most of the Special Mission Aircraft in the world were based on converted cargo or passenger planes. Gideon Landa, ELTA VP and GM Airborne Systems: “As part of IAI's strategy, we are bolstering our presence in Europe for leveraging our business and extending cooperation. IAI's Special Mission Aircraft offer advanced and unique technological capabilities to meet a broad range of most demanding intelligence missions. Europe represents a strategic business region for IAI, and we will continue to broaden our products and services to bring our unique technologies to the benefit of our customer's evolving operational requirements.” IAI/ELTA offers four lines of Special Mission Aircraft: AEW&C (Airborne Early Warning & Control) Aircraft utilizing AESA radar and IFF (Identification, Friend or Foe), SIGINT and Communication systems to generate and disseminate an Air and Maritime Situational Picture. It also contains an Air Battle Management and Strike Aircraft Guidance System. ELTA's CAEW (Conformal Airborne Early Warning) aircraft is fitted with a dual band AESA radar providing complete uncompromised 360° azimuthal coverage and is an example of a leading in the class system based on a business jet. IAI has entered into cooperation agreements with Airbus and Embraer to develop and market additional AEW&C aircraft variants. AGS (Air to Ground Surveillance) aircraft using advanced AESA SAR/GMTI radar, SIGINT and EO/IR sensors and an Intelligence Management System to cover large areas, providing Real-time detection, identification, tracking and distribution of surface targets from standoff range in all weather and visibility conditions. A leading product in this category is the IAI MARS2 that includes a breakthrough Digital AESA SAR/GMTI radar and latest generation SIGINT integrated with an advanced Multi-INT system, carried by a high performance business jet. MPA (Maritime Patrol Aircraft) equipped with high performance AESA radar, SIGINT and EO/IR sensors to create an up-to-date maritime picture during Search And Rescue missions, Maritime policing, Environmental Monitoring, Anti Surface Warfare (ASuW) and Anti-Submarine Warfare (ASW) in support of Naval and Coast Guard operations. ELTA's MPAs are based on business jets and turboprop platforms featuring the world leader combat proven ELM-2022 radar family, serving in many countries on all continents. SIGINT (Signal Intelligence) aircraft monitoring the electromagnetic spectrum to detect and accurately locate emitter arrays and communication networks, creating a complete Electromagnetic Order of Battle over the entire large arena of interest. ELTA has developed and provided most advanced SIGINT aircraft to the IDF on business jet platform and supplied airborne SIGINT systems to many Special Mission Aircraft worldwide.

    ULA place sur orbite le satellite de défense anti-missile Sbirs-Geo 5

    Le 18 mai, United Launch Alliance (ULA) a placé le satellite d'alerte avancée Sbirs-Geo 5 sur orbite de transfert géostationnaire. SBIRS GEO-5,construit par Lockheed Martin, est le 5ème et dernier satellite rejoignant l'OPIR (Overhead persistent infrared), une constellation équipée de puissants capteurs de surveillance. « Ces gardiens orbitaux 24h/24 et 7j/7 détectent les lancements de missiles, soutiennent la défense antimissile balistique, élargissent la collecte de renseignements techniques et renforcent la connaissance de la situation sur le champ de bataille », précise Lockheed Martin. Estimant que le monde est désormais « un endroit menaçant avec plus de 1000 lancements de missiles balistiques chaque année », Tom McCormick, vice-président de la zone de mission OPIR de Lockheed Martin Space, déclare que le système de satellites SBIRS constitue « le fer de lance de la défense antimissile » afin d'assurer la sécurité nationale et celle des forces armées américaines.
