Next Generation Jammer (NGJ)
Abstract
This project develops a Next Generation Jammer (NGJ) capability and appropriate technologies required to replace the existing ALQ-99 Tactical Jamming System. NGJ is required to keep pace with advances in threat weapons systems and continuous expansion of the Airborne Electronic Attack (AEA) mission area. NGJ capabilities will address AEA capability gaps, AEA sufficiency gaps and address ALQ-99 shortfalls in scalability, flexibility, supportability, interoperability, availability and capability. NGJ will adopt an adaptable, modular, and open architecture philosophy to combat the increasing capability gap and enable future growth at a reduced operational and sustainment cost. NOTE: NGJ was previously funded under PE 0604270N as part of project 0556 Airborne Electronic Attack (AEA). NGJ effort was budgeted $36.006M under PE 0604270N 0556 in FY09.
