IAI Elta receives EW system contract
Israel Aerospace Industries’ (IAI) Elta Systems has received a contract to modernise and upgrade a national level ground based SIGINT and EW system for an unnamed European customer, the company announced on 13 June.
The contract is worth over $150 million and includes various fixed sites and mobile systems, which will be based on ELTA's ELI-6063 integrated SIGINT and EW systems.
The upgraded system will provide a dual civilian and military ground and air situational picture as well as an enhanced military electronic order of battle picture, for both the tactical and strategic levels of the customer's army and air force.
ELI-6063 is an advanced fixed and mobile ground-based integrated EW system for communication and for non-communication SIGINT. The system can detect, monitor, analyse, locate, record and jam enemy communications and radars.
The ELI-6063 delivers a continuous and dynamic real-time flow of COMINT and ELINT-derived intelligence data to supported units. The SIGINT data is also used by the system's C2 centres to direct system jamming stations for jamming selected targets.
