Chemring company Alloy Surfaces will supply MJU-66 infrared decoys to the US Navy and US Air Force under a $22.2 million three year indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (ID/IQ) contract announced on 17 September.
The MJU-66 is a Special Material Decoy, designed to work as a countermeasure against advanced IR air-to-air and surface-to-air missiles. The decoys will help protect aircraft, including C-130 transport aircraft, from infrared missile threats.
Joseph Verbitski, president, Alloy Surfaces, said: ‘We are extremely pleased with the confidence and trust the US Navy and Air Force continue to express in our Special Material Decoys. Our Special Material Decoys are used to protect air crews and aircraft against Man Portable Air Defence Systems all around the world.’
Alloy Surfaces’ decoys have day and night covert properties and are currently being used to protect a wide variety of United States and allied (NATO) military aircraft.
