Boeing, Raytheon team for RSAF C5I solution
Boeing will join the Raytheon team to offer a comprehensive Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Cyber and Intelligence (C5I) solution for the modernisation of the Royal Saudi Air Force (RSAF) command and control system, Raytheon has announced.
Raytheon would provide the RSAF with a tailored C5I systems approach based on its Command View mission solutions suite of interoperable and integrated command and control capabilities. It is the provider of the current RSAF command and control system, including the RSAF air operations centre and the KSA MOD C4I system.
Bob Delorge, vice president, C4I Systems, Raytheon, said: 'Boeing's system of systems and platform experience is a strong complement to our highly capable technologies and proven performance.'
Paul Geery, vice president, C3 solutions, Boeing, said: 'Working with Raytheon to modernise the RSAF's command and control capability is important to us.
'This agreement brings two of the world's leading defence systems providers together to provide a world-class command and control system in support of the RSAF's growing fleet of state-of-the-art aircraft, including the F-15SA.'
