Australia looks towards space with force restructure, investment and training
Australia is looking to improve its presence in space with a focus on communications and creating a dedicated segment of its defence forces committed to the domain.
Lockheed Martin has announced that it has been testing a new electronic warfare (EW) pod in its advanced anechoic chamber, as it looks to expands it capabilities in protecting and controlling the electromagnetic spectrum.
The pod is designed to fit various platforms and features a wide range of EW capabilities within a single unit. EW capabilities can range from jamming enemy communications and radar to protecting friendly forces from signal-jamming.
According to the company the testing is producing positive results.
Brigitte Aungier, electronic warfare business development, Lockheed Martin, said: 'Our electronic warfare solution offers the capability to understand the electromagnetic battlespace through passive detection capabilities for advanced threats, advanced countermeasures, and a framework to easily integrate future upgrades.
'We offer proven capabilities that outpace the threat to the electromagnetic spectrum in a package that will allow us to continue to upgrade it in order to beat future threats.'
