USAF maintains course for Compass Call transfer

摘要

The US Air Force will continue with a so-called "cross-deck" effort for its Compass Call electronic warfare capability with L3 Technologies, despite the threat of a further protest from Bombardier. On 10 March, the US Government Accountability Office (GAO) rejected an initial appeal lodged by Bombardier after the USAF opted to pursue a project with L3 to transfer the Compass Call mission system from its current host platform, the Lockheed Martin EC-130H.
