RvETito Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 (edited) Seems like the F-22 has a new challenge- EA-18G Growler Power: EA-18G boasts F-22 kill (PHOTOS) By Stephen Trimble on February 25, 2009 10:19 PM | Permalink | Comments (4) | TrackBacks (0) |ShareThis Today was Electronic Awareness Warfare Appreciation Day at Andrews AFB. The base hosted a sort of petting zoo for high-tech jamming systems. I noticed a Boeing EA-18G parked on the side, and struck up a conversation with the pilot. As we chatted about interference cancellation systems, I couldn't help but notice an odd decal decorating the side of the fuselage. I asked the pilot: "What's that aircraft decal on the fuselage?" "That's an F-22," he said. "Well, why is it there?" "Because this is the EA-18G that killed an F-22," he explained. "Um, really?" Alas, after that bombshell, the conversation quickly dried up. I did learn the EA-18G kill was courtesy of a well-timed AIM-120 AMRAAM shot. And I learned the simulated combat exercise took place at Nellis AFB. How the EA-18G escort jammer got the shot, and whether its jamming system played a role in the incident were not questions the pilot was prepared to answer. For the spotters, the aircraft pictured above is EA-1, the first of two Lot 27 F/A-18Fs converted into flying prototypes for the EA-18G program. http://www.flightglobal.com/blogs/the-dewline/2009/02/growler-power-ea-18g-boasts-f-.html#comments What the hell is an escort jammer?

RvETito Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 Well this kill could be as real as the thousands of kills the F-22 has scored. The americans have a lot of experience in training flight evaluation, a kill is proved by automatic systems not by human's decision to eliminate subjective factors. 1 "See, to me that's a stupid instrument.

CE_Mikemonster Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 (edited) The operational arguments focus on combat effectiveness against top foreign fighter aircraft such as the Russian Su-27 and MiG-29. Lockheed Martin and USAF analysts put the loss-exchange ratio at 30-1 for the F-22, 3-1 for the F-35 and 1-1 or less for the F-15, F/A-18 and F-16 Interesting way of thinking. EDIT: Advanced air defense systems - called SA-20 and SA-21 by NATO and S-300 and S-400 by the Russians who export them - can only be penetrated by stealthy aircraft, say U.S. experts. The Russians note that their missiles are purely defensive (although that would be a tough argument to make in the Middle East) and that the S-300 is exported to a only few countries. In addition, the S-400 cannot be found outside Russia, and it equips only two divisions within the country, they assert. However, exports of such high-threat, "double-digit" surface-to-air missiles have been made to China, Vietnam and Syria, and are on order for Iran Edited February 26, 2009 by CE_Mikemonster Too many cowboys.

SuperKungFu Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 At the end of the day, it all depends on the pilot. You could be flying the most advance aircraft on the planet and still get shot down if you are not thinking straight. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilotasso Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 (edited) What interestes me is that fact its jamming kit played a role in the event. Otherwise the pilot woild have not pressed the trigger.

Pilotasso Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 (edited) Not correct, theres the burn through range. Stealth does not equal to invisibility. The point Im making is that F-22's AESA radar can jamm the living hell out of any current radars as well, either on planes or missiles. Wich means the Growler kit probably prevented it from hapening just as the F-22 entered its burn through range, thus the comment "well timed AMRAAM shot". This could meant 4 things: 1) US already has the ability to jamm the most agile radar in the world with LPI capability. 2) pretty much every other radar in the world can thus be jammed 3) That it could be donne not just using another AESA radar but a simple pod. 4) Us could be the only user capable of doing this. interesting.
