A Textron subsidiary has been chosen by the Canadian government to provide a technology platform that will work to simulate electronic warfare threats.
Canada picked the Advanced Architecture Phase Amplitude and Time Simulator technology that Textron Systems Electronic Systems offered to the country’s New Electronic Warfare Threat Simulator program, Textron said Wednesday.
The A2PATS comprises EW communications and electronic intelligence tools as well as employs an open architecture designed to support multiple radio frequency synthesizers.
Textron noted its platform works to create a virtual environment for users to precisely locate, identify and counter simulated surface-to-air and ground-based missile threats.
