AFA Winter 2019: BAE Systems updates F-35 electronic warfare systems
28 Feb 2019 Pat Host

"BAE Systems has successfully inserted new technology into its electronic warfare (EW) systems for the global fleet of Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II Joint Strike Fighter (JSF) aircraft, according to a 28 February statement.

The Digital Channelized Receiver/Techniques Generator and Tuner Insertion Program (DTIP) technology is the latest upgrade to the AN/ASQ-239 system. The DTIP was introduced into BAE Systems’ manufacturing processes in 2018, with the first deliveries in July 2018.

BAE Systems believes this upgrade to the AN/ASQ-239 system positions it to meet future capability requirements and improve operators’ ability to conduct critical missions in contested airspace. This improved EW system delivers the functionality of the previous system in a smaller footprint, reducing volume and power requirements. The system also resolves issues with manufacturing obsolescence that would have otherwise required costly design work...."
