Thirteen Royal Saudi Air Force officers recently completed their Basic and Introductory Electronic Warfare (EW) training at Joint Base San Antonio-Randolph, Texas.
The RSAF officers were sponsored by Air Education and Training Command's (AETC) US Air Force Security Assistance Training Squadron (AFSAT) and received their course completion certificates from the Georgia Institute of Technology.
“The US and Saudi Arabia have a longstanding security relationship and share a common interest in preserving stability and security in the Gulf region,” said Vincent Carr, Atkinson Aeronautics & Technology program manager.
The officers attending the program undertook 31 courses in total, divided into four phases and comprising of various courses comprising of radar basics, applications of EW principles, advanced systems engineering, mission data file generation, evaluation, information, and cyber security training courses.
The training aligns with the RSAF's desire to increase their EW capabilities, said Jeff Johnson, a program manager with AFSAT’s division responsible for security cooperation activities with the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. “This training will prepare the students to operate as an autonomous team that can provide efficient and effective EW reprogramming capabilities for the RSAF.”
AETC’s AFSAT Squadron oversees training for almost 14,000 students across 157 countries.
