The U.S. Department of Defense has awarded the CREWS contract to Northrop Grumman, Sierra Nevada and ITT. "... $16,059,687 ... for the design, development and delivery of seven development models for Spiral 3.1 dismounted and seven development models for Spiral 3.2 Mounted Counter Radio-Controlled Improvised Explosive Device (RCIED) Electronic Warfare (CREW) systems" (DoD Press Release No. 1384-07)
Spiral 3.1 CREW systems are dismounted jammers designed to prevent the initiation of Radio-Controlled Improvised Explosive Devices (RC-IED). Spiral 3.2 systems are the mounted version.
