New generation jammers take it to the next level
Electronic signals play a very important role in modern warfare. Signal stability is important for combat. Countries that are considering how to protect the stability of their signals will find ways to affect the signals of other countries. According to a South Korean government report, North Korea has developed a powerful GPS jammer that can interfere with signals from Global Positioning System (GPS) satellites within a radius of "more than 100 kilometers". The news agency said the news about the GPS jammer was included in the report delivered this week to the South Korean Congressional National Defense Committee.
The South Korean capital is about 50 kilometers from the border area, so GPS jammers with such range can destroy or eliminate GPS signals in and around Seoul. Towns and regions along the border are teeming with military installations and equipment, many of which use GPS satellite positioning signals. The US Navy has entered the final stages of development of the Next Generation Jammer Pod (NGJ), which will replace the ALQ-99 which has been in use since the Vietnam War. The new electronic attack pod is combined with the advanced electronic attack technology developed by Raytheon, which combines powerful agile beam interference technology with the latest electronic electronic technology.
The AN / ALQ-99 tactical jamming system is currently integrated into the EA-18G GROWLER and EA-6B Prowler aircraft of the US Navy and Marine Corps. Both planes are currently in service, but only the F / A-18G is expected to be operational in the mid-2020s. Therefore, the new capsule is specially developed for producers. He said that in terms of isotropically radiated power, the next-generation jammer "is about ten times what we usually spend on ALQ-99." In terms of capacity, “Baseball Field” can handle four times the number of tasks and has the ability to go from “goal to goal”. The next air battle will be fought over the electromagnetic spectrum, "Major General Michael Manazil, commander of naval air warfare, told MPs in April and briefly introduced the status of the next generation of sound. The next generation of jammers. has a higher level equivalent omnidirectional radiated power, more distribution, digital waveform modulation, coherent countermeasures, broadband spectrum, clear spectrum output and open structure to deal with these factors.
