Compass Call dominates the electromagnetic spectrum
Compass Call is a tactical airborne electromagnetic attack weapon system that denies, degrades and disrupts adversary command, control, communications, radars, and navigation systems to restrict enemy electromagnetic-based battlespace coordination. The weapon system neutralizes enemy air defenses by preventing the transmission of essential information between sensors, weapon systems and control networks. BAE Systems serves as the mission system engineering, integration, and testing lead as well as the mission system prime contractor.
The future is now.
For more than 40 years, Compass Call has successfully delivered precise electromagnetic attack fires utilizing its mission operating system on the EC-130H airframe. Now, we’ve redesigned the operating system to enable rapid capability insertion to counter complex communication systems and continue to keep pace with emerging technologies utilized by adversaries. Electromagnetic warfare is evolved when the redesigned mission operating system is united with the Gulfstream G550 CAEW platform. Designated as the EC-37B Compass Call, the weapon system is optimized to wreak havoc on adversary decision makers. The total system provides warfighters with the utmost confidence now and into the future.
Game-changing capabilities
- Precise, high-powered, long-range, stand-off jamming that denies, degrades and disrupts adversarial use of electromagnetic spectrum based communications.
- Radar jamming degrades adversarial situational awareness.
- Modern digital signal processing ensures support of advanced missions.
- Modular architecture delivers flexibility to operate in conventional and irregular warfare environments.
- Redesigned mission system architecture, combined with the size, weight, and power of the EC-37B platform, enables the rapid addition of new capabilities to meet emerging requirements.
