Navy League 2015: F-35 studies next-generation EW capability - IHS Jane's 360

Key Points
  • The F-35 programme is considering integration of a next-generation EW capability that could allow pilots to control enemy weapon systems
  • The evolution in EW capability is likened to the technological advancement from gravity bombs to precision munitions
The Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II Joint Strike Fighter programme is considering integration of a new pod-mounted electronic warfare (EW) capability being developed independently, the deputy programme executive officer told IHS Jane's during the during the Navy League Sea-Air-Space conference on 14 April.

"Fundamentally, it's no different than the application of electronic warfare," Rear Admiral Randy Mahr said of the new kit, which he previously referred to as an "offensive cyber" capability.

Electronic warfare will be a vital warfare domain in the decades to come. With the proliferation of long range precision strike weaponry, the ability to destroy, blind, and deceive the enemies networks will be crucial to any campaign. The Defense Department has made it a priority in the "Third offset strategy."
