Denmark-based weapon and aerospace manufacturer Terma has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Northrop Grumman to collaborate on electronic warfare (EW) simulation capabilities.
Under this MoU, Northrop Grumman will provide realistic EW air combat training capabilities for the fourth and fifth-generation aircraft in Northern Europe.
The MoU also requires both companies to contribute their respective expertise to provide modern air operations training.
Northrop Grumman navigation, targeting and survivability vice-president James Conroy said: “Training Nato pilots to operate in contested electromagnetic spectrum environments will be critical to mission success.
“Through our collaboration with Terma to provide our advanced capabilities, we can elevate aviation training for pilots in Europe.”
The training opportunities will allow military personnel to train in a modern, reactive battlespace environment, which will help them to identify and counter enemy missiles or artillery threats.
