ITASS

Overview

The Integrated Tester for Aircraft Survivability Systems (ITASS) verifies radar warning receivers (RWRs), missile warning systems, laser warning systems and other radio frequency (RF) systems onboard aircraft, providing operators the tools they need to confidently validate the operational status of the systems.

Radio frequency (RF), 2-color Infrared (IR), Ultraviolet (UV) and end-to-end DIRCM test
Verifies RWRs, missile warning systems, laser warning systems and other RF systems
Capable of confidence testing fixed, multi-swept and multi-tonal jamming signals
Pulsed and continuous wave laser threats, laser designator, laser range finder and laser beam rider simulation

Textron Systems' ITASS is an end-to-end flight line confidence test set combining radio frequency (RF), ultraviolet (UV), infrared (IR) and laser stimulators in a single, handheld device.

Our ITASS simulates radar threats and automatically verifies system responses, comprehensively addressing all significant frequency ranges. It can be utilized to simulate missile threats in both UV and two-color IR along with the associated countermeasure. The test set also simulates pulsed and continuous wave laser threats for laser designators, laser range finders and laser beam riders.

User-friendly software allows test scenarios to be constructed, pre-programmed and executed easily. With setup times of five minutes or less, technicians can conduct complete aircraft pre-flight checks quickly and reliably.
