Bravo
If ARM was an arm, BRN would be its biceps💪!
Oooooh! Lockheed Martin - Fujitsu SPY-7 radar collaboration!
I'd say this bodes well for BrainChip to play a bigger role in future.
The below article doesn't mention any information confirming a direct collaboration between Lockheed Martin and BrainChip on radar applications at this point in time, however both companies have independently engaged in projects related to advanced radar technologies.
The current collaboration involving Lockheed Martin, Quantum Ventura, and BrainChip centers around the development of CyberNeuro-RT (CNRT) cybersecurity solution.
BTW, Socionext was formed in March 2015 as a joint venture by consolidating the system LSI businesses of Fujitsu Semiconductor Limited and Panasonic Corporation, with additional investment from the Development Bank of Japan. Fujitsu and Panasonic each held a 40% stake in the new company, while the Development Bank of Japan held the remaining 20%
Lockheed Martin, a global leader in the development and delivery of cutting-edge radar solutions, and Fujitsu, a Japanese multinational leader in information and communications technology and digital services, announced the conclusion of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) establishing Fujitsu as a source for the SPY-7 Subarray Suite Power Supply Line Replaceable Unit (PS LRU).
Executive Perspectives
By locally manufacturing critical components for the SPY-7 radar, Japan can have complete confidence that this system will be fully supported and sustained for decades to come, said Paul Lemmo, vice president and general manager at Lockheed Martin. We are honored to play a role in shaping the future of Japan’s defense industry and proud to contribute to the growth of the defense employment landscape in the country.
Fujitsu is honored to contribute to the manufacturing of the SPY-7 radar, especially in the production of the PS LRU, a critical component of the system, said Tsuneo Hayashi, corporate executive officer, SEVP, Fujitsu. Fujitsu will further expand its collaboration with Lockheed Martin on the SPY-7 radar, contributing to its sustainment in Japan and helping to strengthen national security
Continued Partnership
In 2024, the two companies signed a previous MOU to expand Lockheed Martin’s Industrial Cooperation goals for expanding its solid-state radar production and sustainment in Japan.
The collaboration demonstrates Lockheed Martin’s commitment to growing the defense workforce and further developing the production and sustainment of key components for its SPY-7 radar product line.
For more than 30 years, Lockheed Martin has supported Japan’s national security through the delivery of highly capable systems and sensors for the Kongo, Atago and Maya class destroyers. Lockheed Martin’s mission of expanding 21st Century Security® in Japan continues to be strengthened by the partnerships and relationships built in country.
The SPY-7 Advantage: Elevating Naval Radar Performance
Lockheed Martin’s SPY-7 solid-state radar technology empowers users to respond swiftly and decisively to evolving threats. With advanced detection and tracking capabilities, SPY-7 effectively counters complex threats, enabling simultaneous engagement of multiple targets.
