Raytheon strengthens ties with Polish industry
Raytheon will team with Polish company TELDAT to develop and produce advanced militarised routers for the Patriot Air and Missile Defense system as it looks to strengthen ties with Polish industry in pursuit of the country’s Wisla programme.
TELDAT engineers and technicians will design, integrate and qualify this key communications networking technology for Patriot. An initial contract will see engineering teams from each company begin design work and trade studies.
Poland’s Wisla programme aims to increase the country’s missile defence capabilities. Raytheon is one of two teams shortlisted for the programme, along with EuroSAM’s SAMP/T Mamba system.
Raytheon’s WISLA offering includes the development with Polish industry of a next generation Patriot solution, which incorporates a new Common Command and Control (CC2) system that offers open architecture and multi-role capability; the introduction of a 360-degree multi-function radar using advanced radar technology to provide advanced performance, operational readiness and low maintenance cost; and the potential for integration of a new advanced Low Cost Interceptor (LCI) to further expand Patriot’s ability to simultaneously fire multiple missile types to address the continuously evolving threat spectrum.
Daniel J Crowley, president, Raytheon Integrated Defense Systems, said: ‘Raytheon looks forward to long and meaningful partnership opportunities with TELDAT. This effort demonstrates our continuous commitment to establish engineering and technology programmes in Poland and to collaborate with Polish industry. In addition, by producing this militarised router, TELDAT will have access to an export market among established users worldwide - an opportunity unique to the Patriot system.’
Henryk Kruszynski, CEO, TELDAT, added: ‘We are pleased to expand our cooperation with Raytheon. This contract is further proof of our engineering expertise that is leveraged by partners around the world. We think this project is a great start to the tight integration and involvement of TELDAT’s technology solution in the Patriot system.’
