ELT, Rohde & Schwarz Collaborate On Electronic Warfare Systems

Share on

ROHDE & Schwarz and ELT Group have signed a contract to provide electronic warfare (EW) systems for the German Navy’s F124 Sachsen-class frigate and the Polish Navy’s new Miecznick-class multirole frigates.

This collaboration is founded on ELT Group’s capability to provide high-calibre solutions that align with Rohde & Schwarz’ stringent technical and commercial standards, as well as the synergistic fit between both companies’ portfolios.

Rohde & Schwarz was recently commissioned to supply and integrate systems for communications, radar electronic support measures and radar countermeasures (C- ESM/R-ESM/R-ECM) from the R&S KORA family for the three F124 frigates, and communications and radar electronic support measures (C-ESM/R-ESM) for the three Miecznick frigates. The system enhances situational awareness and strengthens early warning capabilities and the self-protection of the ships.

ELT Group’s engagement is part of the framework of these recent acquisitions of EW Systems by Rohde & Schwarz, through the supply of its most advanced solutions for the R- ESM and R-ECM systems.

“We are continuing our successful collaboration from the F126 project and look forward to a trustworthy cooperation,” said managing director of Rohde & Schwarz Vertriebs-GmbH Alexander Philipp. “ELT Group’s team has delivered a meaningful expansion to the established R&S KORA solution. This order represents a significant milestone in the collaboration between the two companies and the German-Italian defence cooperation.”

“We are very pleased with the signing of these important contracts with Rohde & Schwarz,” ELT Group CEO and COO Domitilla Benigni added . “They represent a starting point to further strengthen the value proposition towards our customers, enhanced even more by our long- standing presence in Europe. We look forward to working closely to ensure its successful execution.”-r&s/adj/dl (Pix:ROHDE)
