Raytheon Intelligence & Space (RI&S), a Raytheon Technologies business, deployed an expeditionary Joint Precision Approach and Landing System to Marine Corps Air Station Yuma, Arizona, for three weeks in June 2021. Supported by a team of RI&S employees, the eJPALS deployment provided an opportunity for the Marines to demonstrate the system’s expeditionary capabilities with the F-35B.

The system used for this operational demo is an incremental version, providing a glimpse of the potential capabilities of the final version. eJPALS currently transmits one approach at a time but can change between different touchdown points in seconds. The final product will be able to display 50 different touchdown points simultaneously in a 20-mile radius.(Picture source: Raytheon)
