Together with a pool of Italian SMEs and University a complete ELINT system has been prototyped covering
the 2-18GHz.
The ELINT has been embarked on an ultra-light aircraft for on-field testing with simulated radar sources.
Successful in-flight validation of the whole system has been made in the countryside near Rome Italy.
