Under the deal, Elbit Systems would supply commercial multi-spectral infrared countermeasures or C-MUSIC systems to be implemented onboard a wide body jet aircraft of a country in the Asia-Pacific region.
C-MUSIC is based on Elbit Systems’ MUSIC family of Directed Infrared Countermeasure or DIRCM systems for fixed-wing aircraft and helicopters. It is an advanced countermeasure system that uses advanced fiber laser-directed infrared countermeasure technology to protect mid to large size airliners against heat-seeking shoulder-fired surface-to-air missiles.
