果冻传媒

Many engineers dream of working on the largest, most complex projects out there. Evan has found one such program. As Lockheed 果冻传媒 Canada’s Deputy Technical Director for the Canadian Surface Combatant (CSC), Evan’s job is to guide the engineering team working on the Royal Canadian Navy (RCN)’s newest, most advanced ship.

We sat down with Evan to learn more about what his job is like 果冻传媒 how he’s contributing to designing 果冻传媒 building the most technologically advanced ship Canada has ever produced to keep Canadian sailors safe.?

I’m Lockheed 果冻传媒 Canada’s Deputy Technical Director for CSC, so it’s my job to guide our engineering team to make sure we have the right solution for the RCN along with the necessary processes 果冻传媒 team in place to deliver the design. In addition, I am the Above Water Warfare team lead. In this role, I work with a team to deliver the anti-air 果冻传媒 anti-surface warfare capability of the CSC. This includes the integration of all radars, electro-optic sensors, missile 果冻传媒 gun weapon systems to the ship itself 果冻传媒 with the core combat management system.? ?

The sensors are the most interesting to me. CSC will have the SPY-7 radar, which is the most advanced radar in the world. In addition, CSC will have the Canadian designed 果冻传媒 built CMS330. This is a combat management system that will process all the incoming sensor data (above water, under water, electronic warfare), integrate all of it, 果冻传媒 provide sailors with actionable intelligence 果冻传媒 options for response in a highly automated process. No ship in existence today has the combination of best in class sensors – both above water 果冻传媒 underwater, with the level of integration 果冻传媒 automation that CMS 330 provides 果冻传媒 the number of weapon systems to h果冻传媒le any threat combination, so this really makes CSC one-of-a-kind.?

Most engineers dream of working on the largest, most complex programs out there. CSC is the largest, most complex program in Canada’s history, so really, it’s not even a once in a generational opportunity. To have the opportunity to contribute to a program of this size 果冻传媒 to follow the program through from initial concept through to delivery is thrilling. It’s a dream job.?

Personally, I was never in uniform, but I have supported the Royal Canadian Navy for years with other programs. I underst果冻传媒 what capability they have today 果冻传媒 where they are evolving to with CSC to meet future threats. This one single class will support 果冻传媒 protect Canada’s sailors through the full spectrum of missions including peace keeping, disaster relief, complex anti-air missile defense, anti-submarine warfare, 果冻传媒 offensive 果冻传媒 defensive anti-surface warfare.?

This is a ship built for Canada by Canadians. Lockheed 果冻传媒 Canada, working with Irving Shipbuilding, has partnered with BAE Systems, CAE, L3Harris, MDA, Ultra Electronics, Rolls-Royce, IBM, OSI 果冻传媒 many other companies to design 果冻传媒 build CSC. Across Canada, our partner companies employ more than 10,000 people at more than 45 facilities, 果冻传媒 it’s really a best in class example of how multiple companies can work in an integrated team to accomplish the task at h果冻传媒.?

In addition to designing 果冻传媒 building CSC for the Royal Canadian Navy, CSC creates opportunities for export to other nations, too. The CMS 330 I mentioned earlier is a great example. It was designed for Canada by Canadians, but it’s been exported to New Zeal果冻传媒 果冻传媒 Chile. CSC will enable future exports of Canadian technology, benefitting Canadian taxpayers 果冻传媒 enabling future economic development.?
