Pacific Defense, alongside its affiliate Perceptronics, have been awarded a follow-on by the Air Force Life Cycle Management Center (AFLCMC) for the development of advanced Electronic Warfare (EW) mission systems.
This contract expands on previous AFLCMC EW development efforts and includes further implementation and flight test of US Government EW software frameworks. These frameworks standardize data processing and techniques delivery within a Sensor Open System Architecture (SOSA)-aligned hardware and software system, fully Open Mission System (OMS) compliant for seamless integration with USAF platforms.
This effort also advances the application of AI/ML algorithms to the processing of RF emitters, culminating in systems integration and flight demonstration in an open architecture pod in operationally representative environments.
Elan Freedy, General Manager, Perceptronics, said: “Our core focus is on the innovative application of AI and ML techniques to enhance the operational effectiveness of mission solutions and our expertise in the EW domain makes this a perfect fit for us.”
Frank Pietryka, VP of EW, SIGINT and Autonomy, Pacific Defense, said: “Pacific Defense is fully committed to advancing cutting-edge, fully open architecture solutions for the US Government.”
“The integration of these solutions into the Electronic Warfare mission is a national priority.”
The awarded contract has a 12-month period of performance, running through December of 2025, with primary work locations in Nashua, NH, El Segundo, CA and Fairfax, VA.
