Allen-Vanguard Delivers More TURMOIL (RF Decoy) to a NATO Country

Allen-Vanguard, the global leader in providing customised solutions and enabling technology across the Cyber and Electromagnetic Activities (CEMA) domain, has delivered more TURMOIL (their RF Decoy capability) to a NATO country. Due to the nature of the technology and its counter-EW role, Allen-Vanguard is unable to disclose more specific details about the customer or the product’s deployment. However, suffice to say, its success has generated a follow-on order.

Allen-Vanguard’s TURMOIL RF Decoy is an Electromagnetic Countermeasure that delivers tactical advantage against adversaries by leveraging Electromagnetic Warfare (EW) capabilities and essentially mimicking friendly forces’ RF signatures in multiple locations, thereby causing disruption (turmoil) in the enemy’s EW and targeting processes. TURMOIL has complex and infinitely variable RF emulation technologies, which can be programmed and reprogrammed quickly and easily by users to adapt to the emerging tactical situation. TURMOIL aides freedom of manoeuvre in the electromagnetic space and creates time and space for formations to deliver surprise offensive operations.

Allen-Vanguard continues to expand outside its more traditional core domain of RF defeat capabilities aimed at Unmanned Air Systems (UAS) and Radio Controlled Improvised Explosive Device (RCIED) threats employed by terrorists and extremists. The expertise in RF signature detection and analysis, established over 20 years of capability delivery, has been adapted by Allen-Vanguard’s engineers and applied more widely across the CEMA domain to meet specific market demands and customer requirements such as this. The continued shift by Allen-Vanguard into wider EW activities is attracting attention within industry circles, and the team are excited by the opportunities identified across the modern Electro Magnetic Spectrum Operational (EMSO) landscape.

Steve Drover, Business Development for Allen-Vanguard, said: “We were approached by an existing customer to design an RF Decoy capability and our engineers, using their vast EW expertise, quickly developed TURMOIL. We were extremely pleased with the outcome, and the fact our customer has ordered more systems is a testament to its value in this increasingly contested and congested battlespace.”
