US Fits Ukrainian F-16s With 'Electromagnetic Warfare' Kit
Ukraine's latest batch of F-16s have been equipped to conduct "full-spectrum electromagnetic warfare," allowing them to rebuff jamming efforts and other electronic attacks by Moscow on the battlefield.
The US Air Force has successfully updated the electronic warfare systems on F-16 fighter jets being sent to Ukraine, according to a Monday report from the US Department of Defense's Defense Visual Information Distribution Service (DVIDS).
According to Lockheed Martin, which manufactures the "Fighting Falcons," proficiency in electronic warfare is the ability "to use the electromagnetic spectrum—signals such as radio, infrared, or radar—to sense, protect, and communicate."
