Northrop Grumman
Quantic Wenzel, an industry leader in crystal oscillators, frequency sources, and integrated microwave assemblies has been selected to engineer and manufacture key electronic assemblies for Northrop Grumman's AN/SLQ-32(V)7 SEWIP Block 3 Program. The program is the third in a series of incremental upgrades that adds an electronic attack (EA) capability to the AN/SLQ-32 electronic warfare system to defend ships against anti-ship missiles. Northrop Grumman chose Quantic Wenzel for the multi-year program in part because of the company's expertise in high-performance solutions.
"Many of us at Quantic Wenzel, including myself, have served or continue to serve in the U.S. armed forces. As such, we are proud to engineer and manufacture products that will help Northrop Grumman and the DoD keep our service members safe," says Greg Peacock, Director of Operations. "Our expertise is rooted in programs like SEWIP Block 3. Since 1978, customers like Northrop Grumman have trusted us to research, design, and deliver innovative solutions with industry leading performance."
In September 2020, Northrop Grumman was awarded the follow-on production contract for SEWIP Block 3 systems by the U.S. Navy. The program is managed by the U.S. Navy Program Executive Office Integrated Warfare Systems (PEO IWS).
