Description

SPEAR-EW is a new development which will carry out Suppression of Enemy Air Defence (SEAD) missions. Utilising a next-gen miniature Electronic Warfare payload provides both stand-in jammer and decoy capabilities. This is a significant force multiplier in the complex A2AD threat environment. It will be delivered using the same electrical and physical interfaces from across the SPEAR family, hence reducing platform integration and through life costs.
