Electronic
Systems’ combat-proven AN/ALQ-172 system
provides highly effective and reliable
protection to B-52 bombers and Special
Operations C-130 aircraft. In a number of
offensive strikes over the past decade, the
ALQ-172 has successfully defended the B-52 in
mission after mission.
The
ALQ-172(V)3 is the most recent, upgraded model
of this successful EW system with the addition
of modern components, new threat profiles and
the latest technology.
ITT
Electronic Systems is under contract with the US
Air Force for the upgrade of AN/ALQ172(V)2
Electronic Countermeasures System to Electronic
Countermeasures Improvement configuration on
B-52H aircraft. This work will be complete by
December 2006.
