are you trying to say the U.S is more mobile with it's EW?? like for instance you say FULL GLOBAL COVERAGE, you are saying the U.S can get it's assests where it's needed?
but these systems Russia is developing are very mobile.
let's look at the system I am just saying are better than what the U.S has or doesn't have
Khibiny http://www.deagel.com/Aircraft-Protection-Systems/Khibiny_a002981001.aspx the U.S analog would be the ALQ-99 right?? what I am saying is this system is light years better than what we are using.

does anyone else have a system that explodes proximity fused artillery and rockets??
and lastly
President-S
we don't have any system like this protecting our helicopters
here is the result of President-S
It's not mobile, the US system are more comprehensive. Mobile means they lack of a full spectrum solution to focus on a general direction (Dealt with all 4 EW Discipline), that is why Russia need a mobile platform to perform these stuff. As they are lacking of a General Attack capability.
You are talking about a "Blow-by-Blow" comparison between US and Russian technology, I am talking about the application and strategic value of such a system.
Let's use what you said as an example.
Khibiny http://www.deagel.com/Aircraft-Protection-Systems/Khibiny_a002981001.aspx the U.S analog would be the ALQ-99 right?? what I am saying is this system is light years better than what we are using.

Khibiny and ALQ-99 is two different system, Khibiny is a ECM device with electronic jamming capability. ALQ-99 (and ALQ-218) were a direct attack device.
The difference? Khibiny work more like stealth, but instead of avoiding enemy radar detection, they confused the radar of their target, much like a jammer. However, Khibiny lacking of Communication Jamming, as well as datalink, they cannot use to actively jam an enemy radar. For which ALQ-99 and ALQ-218 can. Khibiny on SU-34 is more like a ALQ-99/ALQ-218 on EA-6B, while they did jam, they don't have enough power to actively block all the frequency and can operate around their own jamming.
This is fault actually, passive radar does not mean they will not emit anything, Passive Radar means they are using a third party receiver to broadcast and receive incoming target information.
And yes, US do have PCL tech Lockheed have been developing PCL since 1998. And many other (Such as BAe or Thales) have their own version of PCL

EA-18G/EC-130H perform the same task. Just not land base (And again, Airborne means they are more comprehensive)
This sounded like what an IED jammer can do
