NULKA Decoy
Abstract
The Offboard Active Decoy (Nulka) is a joint cooperative program between the United States and Australia that developed an active offboard decoy that utilizes a broadband radio frequency repeater mounted atop a hovering rocket. Nulka counters a wide variety of present and future radar guided Anti-Ship Missiles (ASMs) by radiating a large radar cross section while flying a ship-like trajectory. The United States developed the electronic payload and fire control system, while Australia developed the hovering rocket. The FY23 budget request includes Decoy Launcher Processor (DLP) technology refresh to address threat studies as well as address obsolescence issues. The Objective Architecture development will continue which provides improved Nulka decoy deployment as well as Soft Kill Coordination System (SKCS) integration.
