Raytheon releases first images of new high-power airborne electronic attack weapon system
Published 06:54 (GMT+0000) September 7, 2019


U.S. defense contractor Raytheon has released first images of the newest high-capacity and high-power airborne electronic attack weapon system on the EA-18G Growler carrier-based aircraft.

The new airborne electronic attack weapon system, called Next Generation Jammer Mid-Band, will protect air forces by denying, degrading and disrupting threat radars and communication devices, according to a company news release.

Earlier this week, the U.S. Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR) has reported that the first Raytheon’s Next Generation Jammer Mid-Band Engineering Development Model pod arrived at Naval Air Station Patuxent River after a trek across America late July to begin various verification and test procedures in preparation for the second pod delivery early fall.
