USAF may modify some F-15Cs as radar jammers

摘要

The US Air National Guard may convert some of its Boeing F-15Cs into electronic warfare platforms, possibly adding an entirely new role for the classic air superiority fighter.rnAdding a jamming pod on the F-15C's currently empty centreline weapon station will become possible after a subset of the fleet has been upgraded with Raytheon's APG-63(V)3 active electronically scanned array radar, says Maj Todd Giggy, chief of weapons and tactics for the 159th Fighter Squadron.rn"We're actively looking right now at an electronic warfare ca-nabilitv," he confirms.
