CROWN (European active electronically scanned array with Combined Radar, cOmmunications, and electronic Warfare fuNctions for military applications) received funding from the European Union's Preparatory Action on Defence Research (PADR), the grant for the Research Action call on the topic "Electromagnetic Spectrum Dominance". The  project has a duration of 30 months.

The CROWN project will focus on European active electronically scanned array with combined radar, communications and electronic warfare functions for military applications. It will lay the foundation for designing and building a next-generation multifunction radiofrequency (RF) system based on Active Electronically Scanned Arrays (AESA) technology for a broad range of applications, to become available in several military domains within the next decade.
