CRITICAL NEED FOR SUPPORT- All these aircraft suite requires considerable modernization to keep pace with surface-to-air threat
technology advancements and proliferation. Modernized EW suite subsystems, architecture, and countermeasures will allow ANG aircraft to conduct full spectrum combat operations in the vast majority of today’s contested environments.

STATES IMPACTED - All ANG Aircraft at CONUS and OCONUS sites

MISSION CRITICAL NEED - To survive, ANG aircraft require a geo-locating radar warning receiver capable of processing signals in a
dense RF environment and automatically direct countermeasures to defeat those threats. Increased situational awareness is needed to
correlate on-board and off-board threat detection, terrain masking, and optimized dynamic rerouting and targeting capabilities to minimize
exposure to threats

DEPLOYMENTJUSTIFICATION- A robust integrated electronic attack suite that includes the ALR-69A DRWR will enable all aircraft to
either survive or target current and future radars

FUNDING JUSTIFICATION - Incorporating features such as a DRWR capability in all these aircraft are identified as unfunded
requirements in the ANG Modernization books and have been identified to the USAF for funding

USAF FUNDING TO DATE - USAF has and will fund DRWR's for their Combat and Mobility aircraft in the Program Objective
Memorandum

ANG REQUIREMENT - The ALR-69A is identified in all aircraft Electronic Combat upgrade requirements in the ANG Modernization Book for
2017
