IEE Under Contract with L3Harris for Viper Shield™ Line Replaceable Unit (LRU) Displays

SYLMAR, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--IEE, manufacturer of field-proven military displays, is moving into the production phase of a contract with L3Harris to deliver hundreds of 3ATI Electric Warfare (EW) Multi-Function Displays (MFDs) following the recent first-flight success of the Viper Shield digital electronic warfare system in the single-seat F-16 Block 70. As the cockpit display portion of a multi-LRU EW System (EWS), IEE’s 3ATI is a critical part of the Viper Shield system.

"IEE has been working with L3Harris on this game changing technology for several years, and we continue to support the development and production of this 3ATI for the all-digital electronic warfare suite," said Steve Motter, VP of Business Development.

The full-color 3ATI is a smart display that presents threat data as well as diagnostic functions for the EWS. It also functions as the aircrew controller of the EWS. Through six system control buttons, the unit provides controls to start built-in test, prioritize threats, change modes, and mute audio. It can also give selective menus to regulate and change mission characteristics of the EWS. It features a two-position brightness control button to regulate the screen brightness from NVIS through daylight readable luminance.

“IEE has been working with L3Harris on this game changing technology for several years, and we continue to support the development and production of this 3ATI for the all-digital electronic warfare suite,” said Steve Motter, VP of Business Development. “We congratulate the Viper Shield team for a successful first flight and are happy to have entered the production phase of this exciting project.”

IEE’s 3ATI is customizable to size, resolution, interface and bezel design.
