Tests of E-LynX software defined radio underway with Brazil Air Force

摘要

THE BRAZILIAN Air Force (FAB) and AEL Sistemas, Elbit Systems' Brazilian subsidiary and the prime contractor of the Brazilian Link-BR2 strategic programme, have concluded a series of flight tests for the integration of E-LynX airborne software defined radio (SDR) onboard two F-5M aircraft. In a January 24 release, Elbit Systems stated that the Brazilian Link-BR2 programme aims to provide national secured datalink capabilities, enable digital connectivity of all aerial platforms among themselves and establish multi-domain interoperability. The next phase will be onboard Saab's Gripen NG aircraft, while the Link-BR2 programme roadmap includes integration of the system onboard all FAB aircraft.
