Chemring is pleased to announce that Roke has signed a multi-year agreement with a major US Prime Contractor for the supply of its high-speed Miniature Radar Altimeter ("MRA").
With its compact design and integrated antenna, Roke's MRA is the smallest and lowest mass radar altimeter of its type currently available for use in missile systems and uncrewed air vehicles. Roke's proprietary software algorithms and digital signal processing hardware enable highly accurate altitude measurement over land and sea when operating in high speed, low altitude, austere environments.
With a value of at least £26m (US$32m) over four years with deliveries commencing in October 2025, production will take place at Roke's Romsey, UK, site.
Michael Ord, Chief Executive of Chemring, commented:
"This agreement with a major US Prime Contractor is another success in Roke's strategy to grow revenues from their portfolio of world-leading defence products and systems. It also demonstrates the critical role we play in multiple space and missiles programmes is not confined to our Energetics businesses. Roke continues to see growing interest in its range of defence capabilities and has a significant medium-term pipeline of opportunities valued at more than £300m."
