CICERO, N.Y. — SRC, Inc. announced it has been awarded a $5.2 million contract from BAE Systems to build and deliver 40 common electronic attack receiver (CEAR) systems.
The 40 CEAR systems will be manufactured in Central New York by SRCTec, LLC, an SRC subsidiary.
SRC’s CEAR system “performs real-time analysis of countermeasures for true-to-life training against RF threats,” SRC said in a release. The system is a “key component” in both the unmanned threat emitter (UMTE) and joint threat emitter (JTE) systems, “helping military aircraft in testing their ability to detect and defeat real-world threats.”
