The ADA system is designed to safeguard GPS signals from radio frequency (RF) interference, ensuring uninterrupted positioning, navigation, and timing (PNT) for military platforms. Extensive ground and flight tests have demonstrated the system’s effectiveness in countering GPS jamming and spoofing attempts, reinforcing its reliability in operational environments.
Boaz Levy, President and CEO of IAI, highlighted the growing threat posed by sophisticated GNSS jamming systems on the modern battlefield. He stated that the ADA system offers a resilient navigation solution, designed to adapt to both current and future challenges, much like the Arrow-3 missile defence system.
The integration with M-Code ensures enhanced security and robustness for military users, addressing their most advanced operational needs. M-Code, a modernised GPS signal exclusive to military applications, provides improved encryption and anti-jamming capabilities, further strengthening the effectiveness of the ADA system.
Guy Barlev, Executive Vice President of IAI’s Systems, Missiles & Space Group, emphasised that this combination sets a new benchmark for GPS immunity. He noted that the ADA system has been tested in real combat scenarios, accumulating thousands of flight hours, and proving its ability to maintain operational effectiveness under contested conditions.
IAI’s ADA product portfolio is compatible with a wide range of global navigation satellite systems (GNSS). Its advanced digital signal processing algorithms and multiple mitigation techniques ensure seamless integration into various platforms, including airborne, surface, maritime, and guided munitions.
