BAE Systems has partnered with Raytheon UK to enhance the survivability of the CV90 infantry fighting vehicle against modern electronic warfare threats. Under the agreement, Raytheon will provide the Landshield Plus, a GPS anti-jamming solution designed to ensure secure and accurate navigation even in contested electromagnetic environments. Landshield Plus integrates an antenna and anti-jam processor into one compact unit, capable of detecting and neutralizing up to six jammers simultaneously on the L1 and L2 GPS frequency bands. First unveiled in 2019, the system also includes advanced spoofing detection, enabling it to identify counterfeit GPS signals meant to deceive operators. When fielded across fleets, Landshield Plus sensors can collaborate to triangulate sources of interference, generating actionable intelligence that supports broader battlefield awareness. For the CV90, operated by multiple NATO nations, this capability is especially vital as adversaries increasingly use electronic warfare tactics to undermine navigation and targeting. Deliveries for integration are planned between 2025 and 2029, ensuring the vehicles maintain cutting-edge protection. Defense experts describe the program as a strong example of how layered electronic protection is becoming as critical as armor or firepower. By embedding advanced GPS resilience directly into armored platforms, operators can preserve maneuverability, command synchronization, and precision fires even in environments saturated with jamming attempts. The collaboration further demonstrates BAE Systems’ approach of partnering with specialized firms to integrate best-in-class technologies into its vehicles, strengthening both operational resilience and interoperability with allied forces.
