The system is capable of upgrading the systems presently installed on aircraft; it can also be installed onboard missiles
A new player has entered the field for the development and production of the Electronic Warfare (EW) systems in Israel. The Israeli company MORE, of the EIM group, has unveiled new technology that the company claims can dramatically upgrade the capabilities of existing EW systems.
These systems are installed onboard aircraft or missiles and are designed to prevent an enemy's air defense systems from identifying the aircraft while it is en route to its target.
Current EW systems installed onboard aircraft, for example, picks up signals transmitted from radar, such as a ground-based radar. The system receives the radar signals, processes them, and then returns them as a reflection seemingly arriving from another target or from many targets that arent even in the sky. This prevents systems such as a surface-to-air missile system from identifying an aircraft.
Roman Ravinovich, chief technical manager at MORE, claims that the Americans figured out several years ago that the existing systems arent efficient enough against advanced threats, and have since prepared operational demands for an improved system. We are answering those exact demands, says Rabinovich, who goes on to explain that the system developed by his company saves the stage where the EW system samples the analog signal picked up from the threat, and also prevents the need to manipulate" it.
According to Rabinovich, advanced systems can tell the difference between an RF reflection arriving from a target and a signal that has been "processed" by an EW system. "Our system transmits the original reflections back to the enemy radar, but in a way that prevents it from precisely locating the threat." He states that the company's system can also overload the radar with a massive amount of reflections, bringing it to the brink of collapse and preventing its operators from using the reflections to identify an approaching threat.
Another advantage in the system developed by MORE is that it can handle several threats simultaneously. Thanks to the bandwidth of our system, it can handle threats transmitting in frequencies that intelligence does not even know about in advance."
The Israeli companys system does not require the replacement of existing EW systems installed onboard aircraft, but arrives in the form of an add-on that connects to an existing system and improves its performances. "The part that we add is responsible for the radar signal manipulation, which is what creates the dummy targets that appear on the enemy radar."
According to Rabinovich, miniaturization has resulted in the system being suitable for small aircraft and missiles as well. The power needed to operate the system is also smaller compared to existing systems, he says.
Rabinovich further revealed that prototypes of the system have been tested and have proven operationally effective, and that the company is already participating in tenders in Israel and around the world.
