[quote]Thales has been selected by the French defence procurement agency (DGA), part of the French Ministry of Defence, to upgrade the ELINT (electronic intelligence) system on France’s Transall C-160G Gabriel intelligence aircraft. This decision builds on the guidelines underpinning French defence and security policy, in particular the fundamental principle of maintaining an effective and independent intelligence gathering capability. The system provided by Thales allows the interception, analysis, decoding, recording and processing of Signal Intelligence (SIGINT). From 2011, the Transall Gabriel’s optimized system will meet the technical requirements arising from the need to protect naval and air combat platforms against current and future threats. Thales won this contract against a backdrop of budget constraints. Decisive factors were the company’s world-class expertise in complex airborne systems and its ability to coordinate an extensive team of industry contributors, including smaller specialist firms.
