UK government-industry team focuses on EW exports
A new UK government-industry partnership will see approved customers gain access to UK sourced technical expertise and high-fidelity data relating to Electronic Warfare (EW).
The partnership, between the UK Ministry of Defence (MoD), UK Trade & Investment (UKTI) and a Selex ES-led industry team will work together on the new Partnered Electronic Warfare Support Element (PEWSE) programme.
The PEWSE programme will create, develop and maintain UK-sourced EW operational support and parametric emitter data released on a government-to-government basis to support defence exports to international customers.
Selex ES will lead an industry team comprised of Thales UK Ltd and Lockheed Martin (Canada) to implement the programme and optimise the performance of UK-exported equipment to support UK defence exports. The PEWSE team is now mobilised and is operating out of the Joint EW Operational Support Centre (JEWOSC) at RAF Waddington.
