Filed under: Business Line, Companies, development program, General Dynamics, logistics, training
With unprecedented fidelity and detail, next-generation radar system will track munitions and other military test targets at leading Army test ranges.
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., May 2, 2013 /PRNewswire/ — General Dynamics C4 Systems received a contract modification to the Range Radar Replacement Program (RRRP) to develop a new High/Medium Power Close-in Radar system. The Close-in radar system is mobile and will provide unprecedented fidelity when tracking munitions and other targets at a range of 37 miles or more. The contract modification is valued at $16 million and funds the engineering, development and initial manufacture of the new radar system. General Dynamics C4 Systems is a business unit of General Dynamics (NYSE: GD).
“The Close-in radar system is the second in a new generation of range instrumentation radars that deliver cost-effective, digital technologies and systems needed to meet the Army’s goal of modernizing test ranges in Alabama, Arizona, New Mexico and Maryland,” said Chris Marzilli, president of General Dynamics C4 Systems.
The Close-in radar system joins the Fly-out radar system, which was the first range instrumentation radar system ordered using the RRRP contract. The Close-in radar system will acquire information about the launch and early stages of flight for munitions and other low-flying objects. The Fly-out radar system, which has just completed the requirements phase of development, is capable of tracking up to 40 test objects over a range of 60 miles. The new mobile radar systems eliminate the cost and downtime associated with maintaining and moving decades-old, antiquated radar systems that are currently in place at Army test ranges.
A General Dynamics-led team was awarded the Range Radar Replacement Program in June 2012. The program replaces an aging fleet of radar systems currently operating at U.S. Army test ranges located at White Sands Test Center, N.M.; Yuma Test Center, Ariz.; Aberdeen Test Center, Md.; and Redstone Test Center, Ala.
The General Dynamics RRRP solution leverages XSTAR family of instrumentation radar developed by STAR Dynamics.
The General Dynamics team is led by General Dynamics C4 Systems, based in Scottsdale, Ariz., and includes STAR Dynamics of Hilliard, Ohio; Georgia Tech Research Institute of Atlanta; and EO Imaging of Melbourne, Fla. Work will be performed in Scottsdale, Ariz.; Kilgore, Longview and Richardson, Texas; State College, Pa.; Hilliard, Ohio; Reston, Va.; Fort Walton Beach and Melbourne, Fla.; and Atlanta.

Filed under: Air National Guard, Business Line, Companies, Contract Additions, Contract Awards, development program, Events, Lockheed Martin, logistics, Military Aviation, production program, Raytheon, Services, U.S. Air Force, U.S. Marine Corps, U.S. Navy
While the United States continues development and testing of the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter (JSF) it must continue to utilize its older fighter and attack aircraft. The F-15, F-16 and F/A-18 all originally entered service in the late Seventies and Eighties but have continued to be upgraded with new electronics, systems and weapons. As part of this all 3 will eventually be fitted with new Active Electronically Scanned Array (AESA) radar systems to replace the mechanically scanned systems currently used. The AESA offer better reliability and ease of maintenance over the older systems.
Raytheon (RTN) is already producing a new radar for the F/A-18 used by the U.S. Navy and Marine Corps and several allied nations. Over 300 have been delivered for retrofit on aircraft.
Raytheon is also providing the new radars for the F-15C and F-15E aircraft used by the Air Force and Air National Guard (ANG). The F-15C variants have begun receiving them and a contract was recently awarded for the Low Rate Initial Production (LRIP) of the one for the F-15E strike version. Initially 6 systems will be delivered as part of this contract.
Even with the threat of budget reductions in the near future these programs will continue. They will most likely see cuts in quantities and slower development but they are necessary to provide the capabilities needed by these aircraft.

More C-RAM Work for Northrop Grumman
Filed under: Australia, Business Line, Companies, Contract Additions, Contract Awards, Countries, Department of Defense, Events, northrop grumman, Northrop Grumman Corp., production program, Raytheon, Services, U.S. Army
The U.S. and its Allies faced attacks from mortars and rockets on their fixed installations in Iraq and Afghanistan. This threat has been commonplace since World War II as the Soviet Union and its allies provided “liberation” movements across the world with these cheap, simple offensive systems. Different countermeasures have been developed against this threat but the U.S. need a rapid reaction short ranged system. This led to the development of the Counter-Rocket, Artillery and Mortar (C-RAM) system.
This is an adaption of the Navy’s Close In Weapon System (CIWS) which uses a 20mm gatling gun and on mount radar systems to counter act anti-ship missiles. The CWIS is made by Raytheon (RTN) but C-RAM is managed by Northrop Grumman (NOC) who make the radar and fire control software. The system was developed quickly and deployed in Iraq and Afghanistan where it has been used to protect bases from indirect fire.
Northrop now continues to receive contracts to support C-RAM as it remains deployed at U.S. and Allied bases across the combat zone.
Yesterday they were awarded two. One worth $30 million is to support systems sold to Australia as part of Foreign Military Sales. The other to support U.S. systems worth about $17 million.
These contracts demonstrate once again that companies are able to make money not just on the development and production of weapon systems but also in their support once fielded. The C-RAM is an important weapon that has proved capable in protecting U.S. troops, their allies and contractors.
A video of C-RAM in action is below.

U.S. Army Receives First Lockheed Martin EQ-36 Counterfire Target Acquisition Radar System
U.S. Army Receives First Lockheed Martin EQ-36 Counterfire Target Acquisition Radar SystemJuly 7, 2009 9:04:00 AM
EQ-36 Radar Delivered After Live-fire Testing at Yuma Proving Ground
SYRACUSE, N.Y., -- Lockheed Martin (NYSE: LMT) has delivered the first Non-Recurring Engineering Enhanced AN/TPQ-36 Counterfire Target Acquisition (EQ-36) Radar System to the U.S. Army.
The EQ-36 radar's delivery on July 2 followed its successful live-fire performance testing against indirect fire from mortars, artillery and rockets from a simulated enemy. The series of tests, held this spring at the Army's Yuma Proving Ground in Arizona, included engineering, contractor and government acceptance testing.
The on-time delivery of the first operational EQ-36 system was just 30 months after the Army's Program Executive Office - Intelligence, Electronic Warfare and Sensors awarded Lockheed Martin a $120 million design and development contract for five systems. EQ-36 radar systems will replace the aging TPQ-36 and TPQ-37 medium-range radars now in the Army's inventory.
"We've listened carefully to the U.S. Army and understand the urgent need to field EQ-36 to protect soldiers currently in the theater," said Carl Bannar, vice president of Lockheed Martin's Radar Systems business. "We're very proud to deliver this first operational EQ-36 system to our customer on schedule."
To accelerate the fielding of the EQ-36 radar, the U.S. Army in June 2008 exercised contract options with Lockheed Martin for 12 additional systems, which will include enhanced performance capabilities. Further, to support the war fighter, delivery of all 12 systems has been accelerated. With production for both orders now running in parallel, the remaining EQ-36 systems will be delivered by fall 2010.
In October 2007, the EQ-36 program completed a successful Preliminary Design Review and in March 2008, the program successfully completed its Critical Design Review.
In November and December 2007, a prototype EQ-36 radar, built by industry partner SRC, was tested against mortars and rockets at Yuma Proving Ground. During the tests, which were specifically designed to evaluate the radar's ability to meet U.S. Army requirements, the EQ-36 prototype successfully located the firing positions of both rocket and mortar launchers. Live fire testing was conducted over a seven-day period without a single false alarm.
