SPS-TA offers a specialised self-protection system for transport aircraft. > SPS-TA: a robust system approach. The system ensures early identification of threats and gives the crew full EW situation awareness, allowing them to avoid hostile weapons sites.
self-protection airborne jammer (ASPJ) An electronic countermeasure (ECM) system that exclusively protects the mother aircraft by jamming the signal of enemy radar. Any defence offered to the other planes in the formation is inconsequential.
Applications in the Air The systems include space imaging systems, long-range oblique imaging systems, hyperspectral systems, head-up displays for all types of aircraft, advanced stabilised systems, and DIRCM systems for aircraft protection.
As long as the airspace is open, the fundamental benefit of airborne forces is their capacity to enter combat zones without the need for terrestrial transportation.
The Global Airborne Self-Protection Systems market accounted for $XX Billion in 2022 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2023 to 2030.
Systems for Airborne EW Self Protection and DIRCM for the UAE For the UAE Air Force Airbus A330 Multi-Role Tanker Transport aircraft, Elbit Systems will provide its direct infrared countermeasures (DIRCM) and airborne electronic warfare (EW) systems.
For the Airbus A330 Multi-Role Tanker Transport aircraft of the UAE Air Force, Elbit Systems Ltd.’s subsidiary in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Elbit Systems Emirates Limited, has been awarded a contract worth about $53 million to provide Direct Infrared Countermeasures (DIRCM) and airborne Electronic Warfare (EW) systems.
Over the course of five years, the contract will be carried out.
The J-MUSIC Self-Protection System and the company’s Infra-Red-based Passive Airborne Warning System will be delivered by Elbit Systems under the terms of the contract in a multi-turret configuration, offering high levels of protection and redundancy.
More than 25 different types of aircraft are equipped with DIRCM systems made by Elbit Systems, which have completed more than 350,000 operational flight hours to date. Given the growing threat that aircraft face from shoulder-fired anti-aircraft missiles, the company is seeing a rise in demand for this kind of self-protection capabilities.
