The first of the six craft, being acquired under the auspices of Project Baynunah, has been built by Constructions Mécaniques de Normandie (CMN) and is now undergoing sea trials.
Abu Dhabi Ship Building (ADSB), in what has been described as the Gulf region's largest and most ambitious naval shipbuilding project, is building the next five.
CEA Technologies' SSCWI transmitters are part of the ship's Evolved Sea Sparrow Missile (ESSM) self-defence system.
CEA's contract with ADSB includes manufacture, delivery, installation and training for its transmitters for the Baynunah Corvette program.
The SSCWI Transmitters will be integrated with the Alenia Marconi Systems (AMS) NA 25XM Fire Control System and the IPN-S Command and Control (C2) System and provide target illumination for the ESSM.
The modular design and construction of the SSCWI Transmitter has allowed CEA Technologies to scale down the size, power and weight requirements of the transmitters to meet the size constraints of the Baynunah Corvettes and still provide the required high-performance target illumination solution.
