US Space Force increases efforts to plug training capabilities gaps
The service has been seeking simulation and emulation solutions capable of reproducing multiple in-orbit threats.
Raytheon Company has achieved a production milestone with the 500th delivery of its ALR-67(V)3 digital radar warning receiver to the US Navy.
The ALR-67(V)3 is the US Navy standard for digital radar warning receiver technology. It is installed on all frontline, carrier-based F/A-18E/F tactical aircraft and is an integral part of modernization programs for US and international customers.
"I am particularly proud that our organization has achieved this significant milestone," said Scott Jackson, general manager, Raytheon Electronic Warfare Systems. "NAVAIR (Naval Air Systems Command) set the bar high with respect to performance and schedule. It took a concerted effort by the government-industry team to meet the challenging needs of the F/A-18E/F warfighter. In the end, Raytheon delivered on time and provided enhanced aircrew survivability through improved situational awareness."

The service has been seeking simulation and emulation solutions capable of reproducing multiple in-orbit threats.
The service has been conducting several acquisition and upgrading efforts involving artificial intelligence and machine learning to improve communication, data analysis and ISR systems.
The Syracuse 4B communications satellite, developed by Airbus and Thales Alenia Space, was launched last year, bolstering secure military satellite communications for the French Armed Forces. Thales has now been selected to provide terminals for vehicles.
The growing importance of space in modern warfare, advancements in satellite technology, and increasing threats from rivals like China and Russia were among the topics of a Eurosatory 2024 panel on military space operations.
AN/ARC-232A is a Starfire radio that provides VHF/UHF communications to airborne platforms and the transceiver is software-programmable, allowing for multiple waveform support as well as optional national electronic counter counter-measure (ECCM) capability.
During the 18-month period of the contract, Lockheed Martin will apply Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) techniques to create surrogate models of aircraft, sensors, electronic warfare and weapons within dynamic and operationally representative environments.
