Rockwell Collins selected to provide Radar Electronic Support Measures for German frigates
Rockwell Collins has been selected to provide a Radar Electronic Support Measures (R-ESM) suite for Germany’s F125 Special Forces and Stabilization frigates. Deliveries are scheduled from 2010 to 2013.
The agreement calls for Rockwell Collins to provide its CS-3600 R-ESM system, which contains the CS-3001 Pulse Analyzer Unit (PAU), CS-5998 wideband tuners, CS-5020 microwave tuners, IFMR-6070 Instantaneous Frequency Measuring Receiver (IFM) and the CS-6090 PRISM (Precision Intercept Spectral Monitoring System).
“With the selection of this system, the German F125 frigates will be equipped with some of the most advanced radar collection and analysis capability available to today’s navies,” said Alan Caslavka, vice president and general manager of Command, Control, Communications and Intelligence Solutions for Rockwell Collins. “The R-ESM system will play an important role in the situational awareness of the German Navy.”
Work will be completed at the company’s Richardson, Texas, facility where its Electronic Warfare and Intelligence Solutions unit designs and builds state-of-the-art Electronic Intelligence (ELINT) and Electronic Support Measures (ESM) systems and components for domestic and international ground, mobile, surface and airborne platforms.
