Overview
Compact Modular EW Solution
Deceptor is a RF EW system based on commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) hardware that leverages cutting-edge software capability. It combines a high level of capability with very low size, weight, power and cost (SWaP-C). Deceptor supports rapid payload configuration and technology updates at a low price, making it suitable for expendable air, ground or maritime unmanned platforms. The Deceptor architecture enables a capable L3Harris EW software suite that is flexible, adaptable and supports third-party reprogrammability. L3Harris provides the infrastructure to support rapid reprogramming and compatibility with open standards such as Big Iron. The common Framework Environment (CFE) ensures rapid integration and enables hosting of high Technology Readiness Level (TRL) 3rd party applications.
Advanced ES and EA Capabilities for Today’s Evolving Threat Environment
Deceptor provides advanced ES and EA capabilities. Passive detection, classification and identification of modern emitters is enhanced with optimized direction-finding and geolocation algorithms tailored for low SWaP-C applications. Flight-proven EA techniques to deceive, degrade and deny emitter detection are implemented in a reconfigurable, reprogrammable multi-core Digital RF memory architecture. Effects are mission-tailorable and designed to meet the needs of offboarding EW efforts, including launched effects for short, medium and long range.
