If IAF were to Get EA-18G Growlers, Our Enemies would be Groping in the Dark

[A.P. Richelieu]

Lapayto yar. Russia would demonstrate and keep silent for obvious reasons. Wanted to send a message, which they did.

Unfortunately the message they sent was that Russian pilots are morons.

On Topic: The AN/ALQ-99 used on the Growler is notoriously unreliable.
It is using yesterdays technology (GaAs) and was, like the Sopwith Camel,
designed in the previous century.
The SAAB Arexis technology based on GaN was designed to steal that market.
It is included in the Gripen E and available as a pod.

Sir, we'll be happy if every tom dick and harry disguised as Defence analyst (Writer of the article for instance) leave cyberspace.
