Elbit Systems announced that its E-LynX tactical Software Defined Radio (SDR) solution was selected by the Spanish Ministry of Defense Directorate-General for Armament and Material (DGAM) for the “URGENT ACQUISITION OF V/UHF SDR RADIO EQUIPMENT” program. This follows the Spanish MOD’s selection of the E-LynX SDR solution for its combat battalions in November 2020, and for its 8×8 Dragon Vehicles in November 2021.
The E-LynX SDR solution will be manufactured and maintained in Spain as a national sovereign radio, equipped with Spain’s national crypto solution, through the cooperation between Telefonica and Elbit Systems. Designed in an open architecture approach, the E-LynX family of SDR systems provides interoperable multi-channel network capacity, capable of dynamic and autonomous optimisation of spectrum resources and concurrent mission execution while maintaining fast, resilient and secure communications in any terrain.

This contract further validates the technological and operational advantages of our software defined radios.
