HIJENKS

Abstract

The High Power Joint Electromagnetic Non-Kinetic Strike (HIJENKS) program is a proof-of-concept demonstration of a multi-target, advanced airborne High Power Microwave (HPM) payload capable of disrupting electronic targets non-kinetically. HIJENKS is capable of disrupting land-based electronic system infrastructure and engaging multiple targets with a single airborne weapon, increasing operational access/decreasing cost exchange ratios, providing area lethality with increased pulse rate, providing options to address limitations on collateral damage, increasing standoff range and expanding magazine depth. HIJENKS will advance the current state-of-the-art in HPM technology and demonstrate the near-term operational benefits of integrating HPM-based Electronic Warfare/Electronic Attack (EW/EA) into the current force structure.
