2011年7月7日 · AN/ALQ-184 Electronic Attack Pod The AN/ALQ-184 Electronic Attack Pod provides self-protection for the F-16 combat aircraft and crew in a complex radar guided threat environment.

Inspecting an AN/ALQ-184 Electronic Attack Pod. An electronic countermeasure (ECM) is an electrical or electronic device designed to trick or deceive radar, sonar, or other detection systems, like infrared (IR) or lasers. It may be used both offensively and defensively to deny targeting information to an enemy. The system may make many separate targets appear to the enemy, or make the real ...

The ALQ-184 has provided the ROCAF with decades of successful performance as the sole jamming pod on the F-16 block 20. By upgrading the existing 82 pods, the ROCAF has a solution that not only brings the proven ALQ-184 into the digital age, ready to meet today’s advanced threats, but does so in a way that reduces the overall cost, lowers ...

2020年12月10日 · While it took a decade, the U.S. Air Force found canisters to replace those on a damaged Raytheon [RTX] ALQ-184 electronic countermeasures pod (ECM) used by the F-16s of the 51 st Fighter Wing at Osan Air Base, Korea for suppression of enemy air defenses (SEAD) The Air Force Life Cycle Management Center (AFLCMC) at Wright-Patterson AFB, Ohio said that the pod had incurred exterior damage from ...

The AN/ALQ-184 is a self-defense electronic countermeasures pod used on USAF tactical aircraft. It operates in both receive and transmit modes to selectively direct high power jamming against multiple emitters.

The AN/ALQ-184 electronic jamming pod is an upgraded AN/ALQ-119 system made by Raytheon using new, digital, plug-in circuit boards. It is an aircraft system. Compared with the ALQ-119, the -184 has a higher effective radiated power (ERP) in the mid and high bands, improved reliability, lower maintenance demands and reduced electronic countermeasures (ECM) response time in the mid and high ...

Between 1989 and 1996 Raytheon delivered more than 850 pods to the US Air Force, including a 1993 award for 78 pods. During 1996 the US Air Force awarded contracts totaling $28 million to upgrade and improve the AN/ALQ-184 electronic countermeasures pod, bringing total value of that program since its inception to more than $1.2 billion.

2019年4月17日 · The ALQ-184 pod intercepts radar signals from aircraft and missile sites and is used to support the suppression of enemy air defenses mission by increasing reception range, reducing countermeasure response time and improving reliability.

The AN/ALQ-184 electronic countermeasures pod is used by the US Air Force and the Air National Guard on tactical aircraft including the F-16 and the A-10. The pod is a self-protection jammer and is available in either two or three band versions. This set depicts the shorter version of the ALQ-184, so presumably it is the two band version and it is often seen on the centerline pylon of USAF F ...

The pod in question – an ALQ-184 – is an electronic countermeasure pod providing protection against enemy surface-to-air radars by receiving signals and delivering false information to the surface-to-air threats tracking the aircraft.
