Leonardo announced the next generation of survivability upgrade for Eurofighter Typhoon combat aircraft at the Royal International Air Tattoo (RIAT) on 14 July.
Speaking on behalf of the European Defensive Aids Sub-System (EuroDASS) consortium that also comprises ELT Group, Indra, and Hensoldt, Leonardo said this improvement of the current Praetorian DASS system is designed to meet the Phase 4 Enhancement (P4E) upgrade requirements of the four Eurofighter partner countries of Germany, Italy, Spain, and the United Kingdom, as well as for export customers.
“The latest upgrade will increase the survivability of the aircraft and lays the foundation for the defence system’s integration with Typhoon’s highly capable E-Scan radars. This includes all versions of the Typhoon E-Scan radar comprising that already in service as well as variants currently under development by the Eurofighter partner nations,” Leonardo said.
