In a major development for the defense industry, Rohde & Schwarz and ELT Group have signed a contract to provide Electronic Warfare (EW) systems for the German Navy's F124 class frigates and the Polish Navy’s new Miecznick class multirole frigates.
This collaboration is founded on ELT Group's capability to provide high-caliber solutions that align with Rohde & Schwarz's stringent technical and commercial standards, as well as the synergistic fit between both companies' portfolios.
Rohde & Schwarz was recently commissioned to supply and integrate systems for communications, radar electronic support measures, and radar countermeasures (C-ESM/R-ESM/R-ECM) from the R&S KORA family for the three F124 Sachsen class frigates, and communications and radar electronic support measures (C-ESM/R-ESM) for the three Miecznick multi-role frigates. The system enhances situational awareness and strengthens early warning capabilities and the self-protection of ships.
ELT Group's engagement is part of the framework of these recent acquisitions of EW Systems by Rohde & Schwarz, through the supply of its most advanced solutions for the R-ESM and R-ECM systems.
Alexander Philipp, Managing Director, Rohde & Schwarz Vertriebs-GmbH said, "We are continuing our successful collaboration from the F126 project and look forward to a trustworthy cooperation.” He further added, “ELT Group's team has delivered a meaningful expansion to the established R&S KORA solution. This order represents a significant milestone in the collaboration between the two companies and the German Italian defense cooperation.”
Domitilla Benigni, ELT Group CEO & COO, echoed this sentiment: " We are very pleased with the signing of these important contracts with Rohde & Schwarz. These contracts represent a starting point to further strengthen the value proposition towards our customers, enhanced even more by our long-standing presence in Europe. We look forward to working closely to ensure its successful execution.”
