UK MoD unveils first steps for British Army Watchkeeper replacement
Project Corvus will look for a replacement for the Watchkeeper Mk1 uncrewed aerial system (UAS) that was retired from service in the British Army in March 2025.
Acroamatics Telemetry Systems has been selected by Northrop Grumman to deliver multiple Model 3022AP Portable Multi-function Telemetry Processing Systems in support of the Advanced Anti-Radiation Guided Missile (AARGM) programme production and test operations.
The AARGM is a supersonic, medium-range, air-launched tactical missile in use with the US Navy, US Marine Corps, Italian Air Force and the Royal Australian Airforce.
Acroamatics’ Model 3022AP real-time, portable Telemetry Data Processing and Simulation System features high-performance telemetry acquisition and data processing.
Acroamatics’ Telemetry Data Processing (TDP) striping language allows users to customise various aspects of the system, making the Model 3022AP a future-proof design. Whether the mission calls for a custom data processing function or a unique archive format, the TDP scripting language can be used with the decommutation or data processing modules to quickly support most mission requirements.
