SAAB STARTS FLIGHT TESTING OF NEW ESCORT JAMMER

摘要

Saab (Jaerfaella, Sweden) has begun flight testing of a new low-band Electronic Attack Jammer Pod (EAJP), developed as part of the company's Ar-exis family of fast jet electronic warfare (EW) systems. Intended to provide strike packages with an airborne electronic attack capability to defeat early warning radars, the EAJP pod incorporates L-band and S-band GaN-based active electronically scanned AESA antennas in the fore and aft sections of the main pod structure, with large VHF and UHF fin antennas mounted externally.
