Lockheed Martin is handling development of the self-contained pod, which was initially meant to be slung beneath an MQ-1C Gray Eagle drone, made by General Atomics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This summer, the MFEW-AL was put through its paces on an MC-12W Liberty, a plane typically used to conduct medium- to low-altitude intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance missions. The Air Force previously expressed interest in integrating the EW pod<b> <\/b>onto an A-10 attack plane.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cMFEW-AL is an innovative converged technology that addresses our customer\u2019s vision for combined cyber and electronic warfare capability and dominance,\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/www.c4isrnet.com\/electronic-warfare\/2022\/10\/08\/family-affair-us-army-pursues-three-synced-electronic-warfare-systems\/\" target=\"_blank\">Deon Viergutz<\/a>, vice president of spectrum convergence at Lockheed, said in a statement to C4ISRNET. \u201cIn collaboration with the U.S. Army, this demonstration expanded upon all testing of the MFEW-AL system to date, bringing to bear a more complete hardware and software configuration that gets us closer to delivering this technology to our EW soldiers.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Electronic warfare is a high-stakes game of cat and mouse tied to the electromagnetic spectrum. Militaries rely on the spectrum \u2014 and its manipulation \u2014 for connectivity, navigation and weapons guidance. The MFEW-AL is designed to detect, locate, disrupt and degrade adversary communications and radars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Key to MFEW-AL\u2019s flexibility is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.c4isrnet.com\/electronic-warfare\/2022\/12\/08\/us-army-faces-physical-space-limits-in-adding-electronic-warfare-tech\/\" target=\"_blank\">a Lego-like, plug-and-play approach<\/a> known as the C5ISR Electronic Warfare Modular Open Suite of Standards. The CMOSS backbone embeds critical capabilities \u2014 like communication, timing and mission planning \u2014 into cards that are then inserted into a standardized, ruggedized chassis. The interchangeable setup is expected to reduce development cycles, shrink equipment downtimes and improve the Army\u2019s elasticity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Brig. Gen. Ed Barker, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.c4isrnet.com\/electronic-warfare\/2023\/08\/21\/four-questions-for-ed-barker-armys-new-electronic-warfare-executive\/\" target=\"_blank\">program executive officer for intelligence, electronic warfare and sensors<\/a>, in August told C4ISRNET developmental testing of MFEW-AL took place at the China Lake weapons range in California. He noted the service is getting the tech into the hands of troops.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe\u2019ve had soldiers both at China Lake and then up at 10th Mountain Division,\u201d Barker said in an interview on the sidelines of the AFCEA TechNet Augusta conference in Georgia. \u201cThe software and hardware is stable. I think we\u2019re in pretty good shape.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Additional flight tests are expected in the coming months, on top of the 200-plus hours MFEW-AL has already logged. Lockheed said it will use the feedback to further refine its technology. Airworthiness certification is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.army.mil\/article\/269935\" target=\"_blank\">anticipated for fiscal 2024<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Lockheed is also involved with two additional Army electronic warfare and signals intelligence systems: the Terrestrial Layer System-Brigade Combat Team and the heftier Terrestrial Layer System-Echelons Above Brigade. The service tapped the company in April to fit Terrestrial Layer System technology onto Stryker combat vehicles, made by General Dynamics, and to begin planning for the same aboard BAE Systems\u2019 Armored Multi-Purpose Vehicle. The arrangement was worth nearly $73 million.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Months later, Lockheed was selected to continue development of TLS-EAB in a deal worth <a href=\"https:\/\/www.c4isrnet.com\/industry\/2023\/06\/27\/lockheed-bests-general-dynamics-for-army-long-range-jammer-contract\/\" target=\"_blank\">nearly $37 million<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Maryland-based company reaped $63 billion in defense-related revenue in 2022, earning it the No. 1 spot on Defense News\u2019 Top 100 list, which ranks companies worldwide by defense revenue. It secured $64 billion the year prior.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Additional flight tests are expected in the coming months \u2014 on top of the hours MFEW-AL has already
