EADS Chooses Northrop Grumman Simulators

(Wireless News Via Acquire Media NewsEdge)
Northrop Grumman has been selected to provide eight Combat
Electromagnetic Environment Simulator (CEESIM) systems to support the
Electronic Warfare (EW) self-defense ground station, of the EADS A400M
transport aircraft.

Under the terms of the $28.2 million contract, Northrop Grumman will
provide eight CEESIM radio frequency simulators to European Aeronautic
Defence and Space Company (EADS), represented by their business units
EADS Defence Electronics (DE) and EADS Military Air Systems (MAS).

The CEESIM systems will be manufactured at Northrop Grumman Amherst
Systems in Buffalo, N.Y.

The Airbus A400M is a modern, multi-role military airlifter that will
replace aging fleets of C-130 Hercules and C-160 Transall air transport
aircraft currently in service with air forces throughout the world.

EADS DE with their partner EADS MAS recently received a direct order
for the delivery of the so-called "Pre-flight Message Support
Environment'' (PFMSE) from Airbus Military S.L., the Industry Lead for
the A400M project.

PFMSE is a software-based system used to program the A400M
self-protection system. It enables the customer to create and verify a
library of expected threats and make a pre-selection of possible
electronic countermeasures.



The verification system of PFMSE includes Northrop Grumman's RF
Simulator systems.

"Northrop Grumman will be providing its industry-leading CEESIM
technology for the A400M to assist in the mission support capabilities
on the ground and underpin the effectiveness of the defensive aids
systems suite during missions,'' said John Stanfill, president of
Northrop Grumman's Amherst Systems business unit. "This important win
enables us to continue the development of our state-of-the-art CEESIM
technology, provide a steady production base of CEESIM systems through
2012 and help us maintain our industry-leading position in the
worldwide EW simulation marketplace.''
