A final decision for production is expected in 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Boeing jet\u2019s current jamming-and-sensing systems are piecemeal. The ADVEW endeavor aims to simplify components and incorporate a government-defined open architecture for easier fixes and upgrades. The plug-and-play approach is thought to reduce downtimes as well as overall costs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWhat this really does is it combines electronic attack and support measures into one integrated system,\u201d Jen Lewis, president for advanced combat systems at L3Harris, said in an interview at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.c4isrnet.com\/digital-show-dailies\/aoc\/\" target=\"_blank\">the Association of Old Crows conference<\/a> in Maryland. \u201cToday, the F-18 struggles because it\u2019s got a federated system. This takes everything and puts it together, so that the reaction time is much quicker, so that our warfighters are getting the information they need.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Aircraft must navigate environments packed with radars, missiles and other threats. Penetrating \u2014 or zipping past, with the aid of electronic manipulation \u2014 is critical.<\/p>\n\n\n\t<aside class=\"smg-interstitial-link wp-block-smg-interstitial-link\">\n\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/c4isrnet\/industry\/2023\/12\/12\/lockheeds-helicopter-borne-jammer-defeats-threats-in-us-navy-test\/\" class=\"smg-interstitial-link__inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"smg-interstitial-link__media\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" src=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/image005.jpg_90ad2d.jpg?w=300\" class=\"smg-interstitial-link__image wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"smg-interstitial-link__content\">\n\t\t\t\t<span class=\"smg-interstitial-link__kicker\">Related<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"smg-interstitial-link__title\">Lockheed\u2019s helicopter-borne jammer \u2018defeats threats\u2019 in US Navy test<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"smg-interstitial-link__excerpt\">The AOEW can work independently aboard the helicopter \u2014 either the MH-60R, as was tried, or the MH-60S \u2014 and can tie back to other systems aboard a vessel.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t<\/aside>\n\t\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Navy, alongside other U.S. military services, is pouring money into electronic warfare amid preparations for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.c4isrnet.com\/cyber\/2023\/09\/12\/china-russia-will-use-cyber-to-sow-chaos-if-war-starts-pentagon-says\/\" target=\"_blank\">potential war with Russia and China<\/a>. Both world powers have built up anti-access and area-denial arsenals meant to keep at bay attackers and restrict battlefield movement. The issue was less pronounced in the Greater Middle East.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Bryan Rosselli, president of advanced products and solutions at RTX business Raytheon, in a statement said the prototyping paves the way for \u201cthe next generation\u201d of electronic warfare. The Navy last year identified non-kinetic effects, or attacks that may not be visible to the naked eye but wreak havoc on networks and other digital equipment, as a decider of future conflicts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe are completely replacing and consolidating the legacy systems into a one-box solution that will deliver a generational refresh to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.c4isrnet.com\/industry\/2023\/12\/12\/l3harris-says-viper-shield-electronic-warfare-tool-for-f-16s-nears-goal\/\" target=\"_blank\">the electronic warfare capability<\/a> for the lifetime of the Super Hornet,\u201d Rosselli said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">RTX and L3Harris are among the world\u2019s 10 largest contractors when ranked by defense-related revenue, according to the Defense News Top 100 study. The former earned $39.6 billion in 2022. The latter earned $13.9 billion.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The sea service in late 2023 identified non-kinetic effects\u00a0\u2014 digital weaponry and other high-tech
