Finmeccanica to Upgrade Electronic Warfare On Indonesian Air Force Light Multirole Fighter Aircraft

SINGAPORE --- Finmeccanica, through its Airborne and Space Systems Division, has signed with Singapore-based prime contractor Aptronics PTE Ltd to provide its SEER radar warning receiver for the Indonesian Air Force. SEER is a self-protection system which detects and identifies potential radar threats and alerts the pilot. 

SEER will be installed on a number of Mk.209 Hawk light multirole fighter aircraft used by the Indonesian Air Force, providing improved security protection for pilots. The contract covers an initial batch of aircraft for current operations with an option to provide further systems in future. 


This result follows another recent success for the technology with the selection of the SG200-D radar warning receiver, a UK-specific variant from the SEER family of products, to provide an ongoing radar warning capability for the RAF’s fleet of Puma and Chinook helicopters. The SEER was also widely praised after it was trialled at the recent NATO tactical leadership programme. Integrated onto two Czech Air Force L-159 Advanced Light Combat Aircraft in under three hours, the system identified air, land and sea-based threats at significant ranges with a high degree of accuracy, operating with 100% reliability during the exercise. 

As Europe’s leader in electronic warfare, Finmeccanica supports every SEER system with a range of operational support services from a team of dedicated experts (Electronic Warfare Operational Support – EWOS). The SEER system’s small-footprint, low-weight and power characteristics ensure its suitability for aircraft of new or upgrade programmes, including fixed and rotary wing aircraft and remotely piloted aerial systems. 


Finmeccanica is among the top ten global players in Aerospace, Defence and Security and Italy’s main industrial company. As a single entity from January 2016, organised into business Divisions, Finmeccanica operates in the most competitive international markets by leveraging its areas of technology and product leadership. Listed on the Milan Stock Exchange, at 31 December 2014, Finmeccanica recorded restated consolidated revenues of 12.8 billion Euros and has a significant industrial presence in Italy, the UK and the U.S.
