Sensor Independent Integrated Defence Aids Suite (SIIDAS)

It is designed to realise the Australian Defence Force's vision to provide common Electronic Warfare Self Protection (EWSP) for a range of rotary and fixed wing aircraft.

The Australian Defence Force selected SIIDAS as their EWSP suite of choice delivering self-protection capability to the Australian Army's S-70A-9 Black Hawk and CH-47D Chinook helicopter fleets under project Echidna Phase 2A.

SIIDAS provides state-of-the-art integration of commercial Electronic Warfare sensors, countermeasures and intelligent suite control, providing a Network Centric Warfare capable, highly effective aircraft self-protection system and an unprecedented level of situational awareness to aircrew.
