Proposal Statement
ANG fighter aircraft require legislation and funding for an RF Expendable Decoy (Brite Cloud) to supply enough electronic warfare techniques against "Ground to Air" threats to decoy all radar guided missiles that are targeting the aircraft, away from the aircraft
Recommendation Information
Recommend NGAUS accept this resolution for pilot and aircraft survivability
- Contested airspace for CAF aircraft operations will continue to grow as potential adversaries’ field increasingly sophisticated technology in the future to target and destroy fighter aircraft.
- This reality is driving a critical need to equip aircraft with robust EW capability that can successfully execute missions in high threat environments.
- This ever-changing high threat environment could expose the aircrew/aircraft to increased risk of hostile action, potentially resulting in mission failure of loss of aircrew/aircraft.
- F-16s will remain at risk to many current and all advanced threat systems resulting in areas of denied access, significantly impacting the pilot’s ability to survive, accomplish assigned missions, and meet combatant commander requirements.
- The aircraft can carry both internally and externally systems that can dispense chaff bundles.
- The ability to dispense an RF expendable decoy (Brite Cloud) would be a significant improvement to survivability of the aircraft and pilot
