Dec 7, 2018 · For its weapon system the EA-6A was initially equipped with the ALQ-31 pod, a long, odd-looking contraption that contained a pair of ALT-6B jammers. This was soon followed by the ALQ-76 pod, which featured a Ram Air Turbine (RAT) that spun in the air stream to provide power for four transmitters, each of which had an independently steered ...

The AN/ALQ-131 is an external electronic countermeasures pod designed to provide aircraft protection against radar directed weapons. More than 1,350 ALQ-131s have been produced for the United States and 11 allied countries.

During Desert Storm, ALQ-131(V) field reliability exceeded specification by almost 500% with a mean time between failures (MTBF) in excess of 200 hours and an operational readiness rate of 95%. It was the standard NATO F-16 system used in …

Dec 7, 2016 · The Royal Netherlands Air Force (RNLAF) has contracted Northrop Grumman to upgrade the AN/ALQ-131 electronic countermeasure (ECM) pods for its F-16 aircraft fleet. The contract requires the company to improve threat detection and jamming capabilities of the aircraft, thereby allowing pilots to operate safely in the modern threat environment.

Jul 7, 2011 · The AN/ALQ-131 Electronic Countermeasures Pod provides electronic countermeasures protection for USAF, ANG, AFRES, and FMS country aircraft. The AN/ALQ-131 is certified on the F-16, F-111,...

Jul 31, 2019 · The EAPUP — an upgraded, digital AN/ALQ-131 pod — will replace the Air Force’s current electronic attack pods. The AN/ALQ-131A is currently available to international partners.

The ALQ-131 is an advanced electronic countermeasures (ECM) pod designed to provide an aircraft self-protection against radar threats. The ALQ-131 accomplishes this by responding with a combination of noise, repeater or transponder electronic jamming techniques.

The AN/ALQ-131 is an airborne, electronic countermeasures (ECM) modular-jamming pod, canister-contained, that targets anti-aircraft radars. It was developed from the AN/ALQ-119 to meet later U.S. Air Force specifications for an advanced noise/deception jamming system.
