MacDonald DetWiller Associates (MDA-Canada) to develop X Band Illuminator for CSC Frigate

[DAVID DUNLOP]

It would appear that MacDonald DetWiller Associates (MDA) (Canada) will be developing and supplying the X Band Illumination Radar for the CSC Frigate. MDA (Canada) was acquired by Maxar Technologies (US) but has since been re-acquired by a Canadian company on 30 December 2019 bringing it "back into the fold". MDA has been deeply involved with Space Technology satellites and the CANADARM 1 & 2. and has been given several contracts one of which is to develop the X Band Illuminator radar for the CSC Frigate.
