Northrop Grumman noted its long-standing partnership with Lockheed Martin on fifth-generation fighter programmes, adding that CEESIM has supported test and development needs since the earliest stages. The simulator is built with a modular design and is available in standard and compact versions to meet differing operational requirements.
James Conroy, vice president for targeting and survivability at Northrop Grumman, said: “Spectrum superiority begins in the lab with CEESIM. Through Northrop Grumman’s high-fidelity modelling of radio frequency threats, we are driving the rapid improvement of survivability for fifth-generation platforms.” He said the system allows advanced testing of receivers in environments that keep pace with emerging threats.
The company explained that CEESIM replicates real combat conditions by simulating dense and complex threat environments for electronic warfare receivers and processors. It said these simulations provide an affordable and dynamic way to test and validate mission sensor systems for a global customer base.
According to Northrop Grumman, the depth of its radio-frequency simulation capability has kept CEESIM users at the forefront of electronic warfare development for decades. The firm added that this ensures mission sensors are prepared for the most demanding challenges facing aircrew today and in the future.
