Could Rafael's EW Jamming Systems be Used against S-400 Batteries?

[DavidSling]

A promotional video released by Rafael late September supposedly reveals that the company's EW systems are capable of jamming Russia's newest air defense systems like the ones stationed in Syria. Is this merely a marketing move or perhaps an Israeli signal to the Kremlin?

A video released by Rafael Advanced Defense Systems late September shows that the company's electronic warfare (EW) systems could be utilized to jam the radars of the S-400 air defense system as well as the Pantsir-S1 system. Is this a mere marketing ploy or a real capability?

Prima facie feasible. Rafael is known for its EW stuff. No marketing gimmick IMO.

Rafale's EW is undoubtedly the best but against S400? I am doubtful. They can at the most escape with its active cancellation system.

Good marketing so how much discount are they willing to give armies? Single jamming pod is no much against a powerfull radar.

Yours may be more advance but russian philosophy is different. They make big sized equipment to make up for their lagging in Electronics. E G. Big Russian radars of Su 30 are as capable as AESA on other planes.
