In support of the increasing importance of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) as intelligence and surveillance assets, a family of Airborne Electronic Surveillance Systems (Airborne ES2) has been developed to meet the demanding requirements of the UAV operating environment. These systems provide both the threat warning and electronic intelligence data that is vital to developing an accurate electronic order of battle for today’s missions. Integrated processing allows effective data reduction so that critical emitter data can be transmitted to off-board users in real-time. The UAV system product line provides the following important design elements:

For use on larger airframes, a family of Airborne ELINT collection systems is available. These modular, rack mounted systems provide high sensitivity and excellent search capability allowing Maritime Patrol Aircraft and other airborne ELINT collection systems to intercept, collect, and characterize signals of interest from 500 MHz to 40 GHz. System architectures include scanning and set-on receivers, digital pulse analyzers, digital recorders, and high-speed processors. The Airborne ELINT product line includes the following features:
