2-Color Advanced Warning System improves aircraft survivability for heavy lift, utility, and attack helicopters

MERRIMACK, N.H., Oct. 15, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — BAE Systems (LON:BA) has successfully completed the delivery of 400 2-Color Advanced Warning Systems (2CAWS) to the U.S. Army as part of the Limited Interim Missile Warning System (LIMWS) program. The advanced aircraft survivability systems have proven themselves in combat, defeating sophisticated missile threats and protecting Army aviators and airborne soldiers.

These advanced aircraft survivability systems are combat-proven, protecting Army aviators and airborne soldiers.

Under the LIMWS Quick Reaction Capability (QRC) contract, BAE Systems designed, developed, and delivered 2CAWS to protect U.S. Army utility, heavy-lift, and attack helicopters. This solution provides highly effective, next-generation threat detection and warning capabilities that improve aircrews’ survivability. The systems use modern multi-spectral sensors, a high-speed digital backbone, and machine learning algorithms to quickly and accurately detect threats in complex environments, and cue laser-based and expendable countermeasures.

“Protecting U.S. Army helicopters is core to our mission,” said Dave Harrold, vice president and general manager of Countermeasure & Electromagnetic Attack Solutions at BAE Systems. “We’ve worked closely with Army Aviation to provide cutting-edge capabilities that protect crews from evolving threats, provide adversarial overmatch, and enable warfighters to execute missions in contested battlespace.”

2CAWS-equipped aircraft have successfully flown thousands of hours in operational environments. The system builds on the proven missile warning capabilities of BAE Systems’ Common Missile Warning System (CMWS), which is currently fielded on thousands of U.S. Army and international armed forces’ aircraft and has demonstrated its effectiveness and reliability over millions of flight hours.

A leader in next-generation threat warning and countermeasure systems, BAE Systems is actively developing new capabilities. The company has deep expertise in executing critical QRC programs and fielding systems optimized for the size, weight, and power constraints and rigorous operating conditions of rotary-wing aircraft.

Work on the aircraft survivability technology is conducted at the company’s facilities in Huntsville, Alabama, and Merrimack, New Hampshire.

Demand for Egg Cartons to Reach $922 million in 2028

Published

By

Molded fiber is the most common material for egg cartons due to its sustainability, low cost, and good cushioning properties.

CLEVELAND, Oct. 15, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — According to the new US Egg Packaging, demand for egg cartons is projected to increase 2.0% annually to $922 million in 2028, with units advancing less than 1% per year to 4.3 billion. Molded fiber and rigid plastic cartons will both register good growth going forward, while demand for EPS foam cartons is forecast to decline due to sustainability concerns and growing restrictions on EPS foam packaging.

Molded fiber is the most common material for egg cartons due to its sustainability, low cost, and good cushioning properties. After losing market share to both foam and rigid plastic in the past, molded fiber is now regaining share from its plastic competitors. More end users are shifting away from foam to molded fiber due to sustainability concerns and growing government regulations on foam use. Molded fiber is also competing more heavily in premium markets with rigid plastic due to improvements in molded fiber carton aesthetics and performance.

Rigid plastic accounts for the smallest share of the materials types used in egg cartons in unit terms, but has seen above average growth, aided by its premium aesthetic and capacity to be easily recycled. Furthermore, due to its transparent nature, consumers are able to easily inspect eggs for cracks without having to open the packaging. Rigid plastic sees significant use with organic and cage-free eggs, with demand driven primarily by rising sales of premium eggs.
