Test Your Aerospace Defense Knowledge

The aerospace defense industry has continued to grow more dynamic and complex. From cost and time pressure to configurability and flexibility, today’s systems are increasingly breaking the legacy mold by using new approaches. While some areas appear more dynamic than others, you can see the adoption of novel technologies and techniques in all of them: space/satellite, electronic warfare (EW), military communications (MilCom), avionics, and spectrum monitoring and signal analysis. To gauge your knowledge of these aerospace defense industry segments, take our quiz.

Admittedly, keeping up with trends across these various segments is no easy task. The following application areas, for example, will increasingly be impacted by many trends:

Be prepared for more technology innovations that cross different aerospace defense segments. Phased array antennas, for example, increasingly include very high power, solid state devices. Digital transmit/receive modules are becoming more common as well.

The impetus for much of this evolution stems from defense departments and militaries worldwide striving to build smaller, more capable forces that deploy quickly and effectively. To ensure successful military operations and mission success, information flow is critical across all warfare domains – air, sea, land, and space. As a result, this industry increasingly focuses on the electromagnetic (EM) spectrum.

Take our quiz to find out if you are an expert on the various aerospace defense segments.
