Microwave Sources for Defence
For radars, missiles and electronic countermeasures
Thales' traveling wave tubes (TWT) and amplifiers deliver unmatched performance and reliability for missile seekers, airborne, land & naval radars, broadband datalinks and electronic countermeasures empowering armed forces to stay ahead of evolving threats.
Strengths
-
Broad Frequency Range
Thales designs and manufactures Traveling Wave Tubes (TWTs) and amplifiers that cover a broad spectrum of frequencies from L to Ka bands to meet all defence requirements in radar, datalinks, ECM and missile seekers.
-
Reliability
Thales amplification solutions are designed to function reliably in extreme conditions, including vibration, shock, altitude, electromagnetic interference, saline environments, and corrosive environments for long-term operational availability.
-
Compact Design
Thales offers comprehensive, compact, and highly efficient solutions designed to meet the stringent requirements of existing or new defense systems, where volume, weight and efficiency are critical constraints.
TWTs and amplifiers designed by Thales ensure that armed forces can rely on the operational availability and high performance of their defence systems. These amplification solutions are critical to enhancing the performance of next-generation systems and maintaining the operating condition of existing systems. Whether ECM, radar, missile seekers, or datalinks, Thales is trusted by defence forces worldwide to deliver these critical solutions.
In a world where defence mechanisms are constantly challenged by new threats, our solutions have become a cornerstone of defence strategies. Thales’s microwave sources for defence are at the forefront of this transformation, delivering unmatched power amplification for military systems that support critical missions.
