DARAD
EW SYSTEM TESTER
EW SELF-PROTECTION SYSTEMS
WHAT IS DARAD?
DA-Group offers an EW testing device, DARAD, for testing military platforms' EW self-protection systems. DARAD is an innovated 3-in-1 handheld testing device to test the platform’s EW system sensors, such as radar warning receiver (RWR), laser warning receiver (LWR) and missile warning receiver (MWS). The device is user programmable and emits wide-band RF, three wavelength IR and solar blind UV to emulate threats.
