ROSH HA'AYIN, Israel, May 31 -- BVR Systems (1998) Ltd. (OTC Bulletin Board: BVRSF), announced today the award of a contract for the provision of its In-Flight Electronic Warfare Simulator (IFEWS) product to be supplied to a European customer. The system includes the provision of airborne units and ground stations, comprising a comprehensive rangeless EW training package. The contract is valued at approximately $US 1.6 million.
The IFEWS system, part of BVR's patented virtual mission training system product line, is an autonomous, on-board threat-environment training suite. The system provides airborne, rangeless, embedded simulation for the training of aircrews in Electronic Warfare (EW) scenarios.
IFEWS simulates the aircraft EW systems, during flight, thus providing a software-based virtual EW range saving millions of dollars otherwise spent on the operations of expensive ground-based instrumentation. IFEWS is a rangeless system which provides a comprehensive synthetic environment with the ability to define realistic threat entities, create true-to-life EW training scenarios, perform the training flight anywhere with no dependency on a ground instrumentation range, and debrief the exercise post-flight.
BVR Systems' Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Ilan Gillies, commented that "This award is a further achievement in our long term strategy to capture a major share in the rapidly evolving global embedded training market. The supply to the foreign customer is further to a recent award for the IFEWS system by the Israel Air Force".
