Update on the EMALS and AAG programs with General Atomics Electromagnetic Systems during Sea Air Space 2022. Chris Cavas discussed the U.S. Navy Gerald R. Ford and French PA-NG aircraft carrier programs with Rolf Ziesing, Vice President of Maritime Systems at General Atomics.

The EMALS and AAG are currently fitted on the first-in-class aircraft carrier USS Gerald R. Ford (CVN 78). In 2021, the systems achieved the U.S. Navy’s target of 8,000 successful aircraft launches and recoveries during the ship’s 18-month Post Delivery Test & Trial (PDT&T) period. EMALS and AAG also performed flawlessly through the full ship shock trials. GA-EMS is also delivering EMALS and AAG for the future USS John F. Kennedy (CVN 79) and USS Enterprise (CVN 80). EMALS and AAG will provide greater flexibility over legacy systems to accommodate the current air wing, as well as future manned and unmanned aircraft.

In December 2021, the United States’ State Department approved a possible Foreign Military Sale (FMS) to France of Electromagnetic Aircraft Launch System (EMALS), Advanced Arresting Gear (AAG), and related equipment for an estimated cost of $1.321 billion. They are intended for the French Navy’s “PANG” next generation aircraft carrier program
