NEWTOWN, Conn. -- The next several years will continue to see steady production and support of Joint Counter Radio-Controlled Improvised Explosive Device Electronic Warfare (JCREW) jammers in multiple variants for the military forces of the U.S. and Australia under the Foreign Military Sales (FMS) program.

Currently, multiple contractors are producing numerous versions of the jammers tailored to specific and sometimes limited applications. For the most part, however, JCREW jammers will be produced to meet the demand for replenishing vehicle and dismounted soldier protection even as the U.S. plans for the removal of all troops in Afghanistan by September 11, 2021.

In February 2021, Northrop Grumman received a $329 million JCREW contract for dismounted systems, mounted systems, mounted auxiliary kits, operational level spares, depot level spares and engineering support services. An FMS component included funding from the government of Australia in the amount of $116.4 million.

A report on the JCREW program is available from Forecast international.
