초록

본 논문은 러시아의 우크라이나 침공으로 촉발된 러-우 전쟁에서 확인된 적외선 유도 미사일(MANPADS) 공격 위협에 대응하기 위한 항공기 생존 시스템으로서 전자전통제장치(electronic warfare controller, EWC) 개발을 제안한다. 최근 전쟁 사례는 미사일 공격으로부터 항공기의 생존성을 확보하기 위한 체계적 대응이 더욱 필요하고 그 적용 범위가 확대되고 있음을 보여주었다. 2000년대 초반까지만 해도 생존 체계는 주로 전투기에 국한되어 적용되었으나 현대의 위협 환경에서는 수송기, 일반 항공기, 헬리콥터 등 다양한 항공기 플랫폼에서도 요격 대응을 위한 생존 시스템의 적용이 필수적이다.

Abstract

During the Russo–Ukrainian War, the use of infrared-guided missiles, such as MANPADS, has underscored the increasing necessity and criticality of survivability systems for defending aircraft under missile attack. Until the early 2000s, survivability systems were primarily applied to fighter aircraft; however, in the current threat environment, their application has become essential for transport aircraft, general aviation platforms, helicopters, and other aircraft types. This paper proposes the development of an electronic warfare controller (EWC) in survivability systems. The configuration of the EWC, which functions as the central brain of the survivability system enabling threat evasion, is described. Furthermore, the role of the shop replaceable unit within the line replaceable unit is examined, and the performance of each interface is verified. The findings provide insights into the design and implementation of survivability systems that enhance aircraft protection against modern missile threats.
