Elkhart, Indiana – Transhield, long known for their advanced protective cover technology, will introduce new RF shielding protective covers for use on vital military assets. The new product comes from a Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (CRADA) between Transhield, Inc. and the Naval Surface Warfare Center, Port Hueneme Division. The goal of the CRADA was to develop a solution to mitigate or prevent the use of the RF spectrum by adversaries to gain information, or negatively affect the tactical capabilities of the U.S. Navy
