BAE Systems Shadow EW technology launch

Overview

BAE Systems has introduced the ‘Shadow EW’ family, a suite of compact electronic warfare solutions designed for small aircraft and unmanned platforms. These systems are engineered for low size, weight, and power requirements to provide situational awareness, targeting, deception, and survivability in contested environments.

The architecture utilizes commercially available microchips for high-performance computing, which is intended to facilitate rapid, large-scale production and reduce costs compared to specialized components. The systems feature an open, software-defined architecture that allows for post-deployment updates and rapid integration to counter evolving threats.

While initial reports indicated production would take place in Sioux City, Iowa, with software development in Nashua, New Hampshire, subsequent information specifies that production is slated for BAE Systems facilities in Cedar Rapids, Iowa.
