ARLINGTON, Va. BAE Systems has unveiled a next-generation cyber-threat detection and mitigation solution for U.S. military platforms called Fox Shield to help platforms detect and respond to cyber attacks in real time.

Efforts to dominate the electromagnetic spectrum (EMS) in the military arena are moving forward as manufacturers develop innovative technologies to find actionable needles in the crowded electromagnetic intelligence haystack. Cognitive capabilities, artificial intelligence (AI), and similarly cutting-edge developments have opened a new chapter in electronic warfare (EW), and so too has the need to keep pace with adversarial advancements.

When the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) required a semi-autonomous software solution to enable complex teamwork between manned and unmanned platforms in communications-deprived environments, they turned to BAE Systems' Distributed Battle Management (DBM) solution. Now, after a number of successful milestones, the DBM baseline program has ended, yet it continues to serve as the basis for disruptive new technology developed by the BAE Systems FAST Labs organization.

FALLS CHURCH, Va. BAE Systems has added to its unmanned undersea vehicle (UUV) portfolio by revealing the new Riptide UUV-12.

UNITED KINGDOM. BAE Systems has won a contract with the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) to develop, manufacture, and deliver sensor-based Archerfish mine neutralizers for the U.S. Navy. The contract is worth up to $110 million (£87 million).

BAE Systems continues to drive innovation in autonomy-based mission planning.

NASHUA, N.H. BAE Systems has won a contract from Lockheed Martin for the production and delivery of additional electronic warfare (EW) systems for Lot 15, Lot 16 long lead, sustainment spares and retro fit kits for the 5th Generation F-35 Lightning II, providing advanced situational awareness and threat response capabilities that support critical missions in contested airspace.
