At CAES, we provide differentiating technologies and advanced solutions to support today’s demanding electronic warfare (EW) mission. The requirements of modern EW systems are rapidly evolving to counter current and emerging threats. Today’s battlefield requires the control and dominance of the electromagnetic spectrum (EMS) by our integrated air, sea, land and space assets. 

CAES provides a broad spectrum of products and technologies to support the three EW domains – Electronic Attack (EA), Electronic Protection (EP) and Electronic Support (ES).  Our products provide critical functionality for airborne, shipborne, and terrestrial systems including F-35, F-22, F-15, F-16, F-18, MQ-1, MQ-4, MQ-9, Surface Electronic Warfare Improvement Program (SEWIP), and Advanced Off-Board Electronic Warfare (AOEW) programs. CAES technologies also support Signals Intelligence (SIGINT) and Electronic Intelligence (ELINT) domains.

CAES is an industry leader in providing solutions to address today’s demand for higher performance while optimizing size, weight, power and cost (SWAP-C). CAES’ portfolio of advanced apertures, conformal antennas, and multi-function modules offers broader frequency coverage, wider instantaneous bandwidth, high efficiency amplification, smaller form-factors, lower power consumption, direct sampling, mixed signal processing, and miniaturized filtering.

CAES continues to develop differentiating technologies for next generation EW capabilities including digital phased arrays, direct-to-digital solutions, adaptive digital beamforming and high temperature antennas. Our next generation products include advanced RF devices to support ultrawideband digitizers at millimeter wave frequencies and beyond. CAES is developing advanced antennas and interferometers which provide mission critical data to improve signal coverage and accuracy. CAES has developed RF front-end solutions that can be dynamically re-calibrated and rapidly prototyped by leveraging state-of-the-art technologies at the edge.   

CAES utilizes Model-based systems engineering to speed development while reducing development costs and risk. CAES leverages strong relationships with our country’s advanced labs and universities to drive ongoing innovation. In addition, CAES offers world-class manufacturing facilities which are driven by lean-manufacturing principles and strong utilization of automation.
