(U)Next Generation Jammer (NGJ) Increment II
Abstract
The Next Generation Jammer (NGJ) is the next step in the evolution of Airborne Electronic Attack (AEA) and is a critical capability necessary to address current, emerging, and evolving Electronic Warfare gaps, ensure kill chain wholeness against growing threat capabilities and capacity, keep pace with enemy threat weapon systems' advancements, and support the continuous expansion of the AEA mission areas that exceed the capability of currently fielded systems. NGJ will utilize enhanced techniques and tactics to deliver significantly improved radar and communications jamming effectiveness as well as other classified capabilities. Utilizing an Open Systems Architecture that supports software and hardware updates to rapidly counter emergent and evolving threats, NGJ is a key enabler and force multiplier for operations across the spectrum of missions defined in the Defense Strategic Guidance, including strike warfare, projecting power despite highly contested environments, and counterinsurgency/irregular warfare. NGJ will also address the shortfalls in scalability, flexibility, supportability, interoperability, availability, and capability of the existing AN/ALQ-99 Tactical Jamming System. This Program Element (PE 0604282N) supports the Next Generation Jammer - Low Band (NGJ-LB) (formerly known as Next Generation Jammer Increment 2) program. NGJ-LB will address AEA capability and sufficiency gaps against enemy threats operating in the lower frequency bands of the electromagnetic spectrum. NGJ-LB will provide the ability to effectively engage enemy threats from increased stand-off distances, employ increased capacity (number of jamming assignments) against enemy targets, and support agile employment by operators. The NGJ-LB system will be integrated on the EA-18G tactical aircraft and will augment and then replace the legacy AN/ALQ-99 Tactical Jamming System Low-Band pods.
