EWS
EWS, Electronic Warfare System is the new feature since EA-18G Growler Update. As Electronic Warfare Aircraft,
EWS is provided the various solution for jamming and protect the allies.
first, press "EWS OPEN" action in action menu.
1. HI-RIS: HIgh-risk Radar Interrupt System. create the radar decoys on your position. that's why "High-Risk"
because you'll need to close the hornet's nest for this system. however, this system is longer operation times,
shorter cool times than another system, called LO-RIS.
click the HI-RIS button to execute HI-RIS.
basic operation time: 60 seconds + 30sec per ALQ-99 pod(max 5 for EA-18G).
basic cool time: 60 seconds - 10sec per ALQ-99 pod(max 5 for EA-18G).
maximum operation time: 210 seconds
minimum cool time: 10 seconds
2. LO-RIS: Low-risk Radar Interrupt System. Create the radar decoys on your “map clicked” position like I-TGT click.
So more safe than HI-RIS(because you don’t need close to enemy position). But this system is shorter operation
times, longer cool times than another system, called HI-RIS. And limitation of maximum range(your position to
clicked position) is 10km.
click the LO-RIS button to execute LO-RIS.
Basic operation time: 40 seconds + 10sec per ALQ-99 pod(max 5 for EA-18G)
basic cool time: 100 seconds – 5sec per ALQ-99 pod(max 5 for EA-18G)
maximum operation time: 90 seconds
minimum cool time: 75 seconds
3. S-J: Sensor-Jammer is jamming the enemy active radar sensor when they in jamming range.
when jamming, enemy will not using active radar for scanning, targeting, and can’t use ARH missile during
jamming. However, it doesn’t mean you are perfectly safe because they still have several sensors like IR/Visual.
4, 5. ESM ON/OFF
ESM, Electronic Support Measures is protect the allies from ARH(active radar homing) missile attack in range.
when you click the button, ESM automatically checks the allies in range. this system running consistently until the
turn-off, crashed.
6. Increase/Decrease Range

Weapon Reference
Guidance : IR
Description : The subsequent AIM-9M ("Mike") has the all-aspect capability of the L model while providing all-
around higher performance. The M model has improved capability against infrared countermeasures, enhanced
background discrimination capability, and a reduced-smoke rocket motor. These modifications increase its ability
to locate and lock-on to a target and decrease the chance of missile detection. Deliveries of the initial AIM-9M-1
began in 1982.
Name : AIM-9X Sidewinder
Guidance : IR
Description : The AIM-9X Sidewinder, developed by Raytheon engineers, entered service in November 2003 with
the USAF (lead platform is the F-15C; the USN lead platform is the F/A-18C) and is a substantial upgrade to the
Sidewinder family featuring an imaging infrared focal-plane array (FPA) seeker with claimed 90° off-boresight
capability, compatibility with helmet-mounted displays such as the new U.S. Joint Helmet Mounted Cueing
System, and a totally new three-dimensional thrust-vectoring control (TVC) system providing increased turn
capability over traditional control surfaces. Utilizing the JHMCS, a pilot can point the AIM-9X missile's seeker and
"lock on" by simply looking at a target, thereby increasing air combat effectiveness. It retains the same rocket
motor, fuze and warhead of the 9-"Mike", but its lower drag gives it improved range and speed.
Description : The AIM-120 Advanced Medium-Range Air-to-Air Missile, or AMRAAM (pronounced "am-ram"), is

Description : The AIM-7 Sparrow is an American, medium-range semi-active radar homing air-to-air missile
operated by the United States Air Force, United States Navy and United States Marine Corps, as well as other
various air forces and navies. Sparrow and its derivatives were the West's principal beyond visual range (BVR) air-
to-air missile from the late 1950s until the 1990s. It remains in service, although it is being phased out in aviation
applications in favor of the more advanced AIM-120 AMRAAM. NATO pilots use the brevity code Fox One in
radio communication to signal launch of a Semi-Active Radar Homing Missile such as the Sparrow.
Name : AIM-54 Phoenix
Description : The AIM-54 Phoenix is a radar-guided, long-range air-to-air missile (AAM), carried in clusters of up
to six missiles on the Grumman F-14 Tomcat, its only operational launch platform. The Phoenix was the United
States' only long-range air-to-air missile. The combination of Phoenix missile and the AN/AWG-9 guidance radar
was the first aerial weapons system that could simultaneously engage multiple targets. Both the missile and the
aircraft were used by the United States Navy and are now retired, the AIM-54 Phoenix in 2004 and the F-14 in
2006.

infrared homing air-to-air missile designed for use by Soviet fighter aircraft. It has been widely exported, and
An upgraded version, the R-60M (NATO reporting name: "Aphid-B"), using a nitrogen-cooled seeker with an
expanded view angle of ±20°, was introduced around 1982. Although its seeker is more sensitive than its
predecessor, the R-60M has only limited all-aspect capability. Minimum engagement range was further reduced,
to only 200 m (220 yd). The proximity fuzes had improved resistance to ECM, although both optical and radar
fuzes remained available (radar-fuzed R-60Ms with the Kolibri-M fuze are designated R-60 km). The R-60M is 42
mm (1.7 in) longer, and has a heavier, 3.5 kg (7.7 lb) continuous-rod warhead, increasing launch weight to 45
kg (99 lb). In some versions the warhead is apparently laced with about 1.6 kg (3.5 lb) of depleted uranium to

Bomb
Name : Mk 82
Description : The Mark 82 (Mk 82) is an unguided, low-drag general-purpose bomb, part of the U.S. Mark 80
series. The explosive filling is usually tritonal, though other compositions have sometimes been used.
Description : The Mark 84 or BLU-117 is an American general-purpose bomb, it is also the largest of the Mark 80
series of weapons. Entering service during the Vietnam War, it became a commonly used US heavy unguided
The Mark 84 has a nominal weight of 2,000 lb (907.2 kg), but its actual weight varies depending on its fin, fuze
options, and retardation configuration, from 1,972 to 2,083 lb (894.5 to 944.8 kg). It is a streamlined steel
The Mark 84 is capable of forming a crater 50 feet (15.2 m) wide and 36 ft (11.0 m) deep. It can penetrate up to
15 inches (381.0 mm) of metal or 11 ft (3.4 m) of concrete, depending on the height from which it is dropped,
Description : American Paveway-series laser-guided bomb, based on the Mk 84 general-purpose bomb, but with
laser seeker and wings for guidance. Introduced into service c. 1976. Used by USAF, US Navy, US Marine Corps,
The GBU-10 has been built in more than a half-dozen variants with different wing and fuse combinations.
Weight depends on the specific configuration, ranging from 2,055 lb (934 kg) to 2,103 lb (956 kg).
Laser-guided bombs are often labeled as "smart bombs", despite requiring external input in the form of laser
designation of the intended target. According to Raytheon's fact sheet for the Paveway 2, 99 deliveries of guided
munitions will yield a circular error probable (CEP) of only 3.6 feet (1.1 m), compared to a CEP of 310 feet (94 m)
Description : The GBU-12 Paveway II is an American aerial laser-guided bomb, based on the Mk 82 500-pound
general-purpose bomb, but with the addition of a nose-mounted laser seeker and fins for guidance. A member
of the Paveway series of weapons, Paveway II entered into service c. 1976. It is currently in service with the Royal
Australian Air Force, Royal Saudi Air Force, U.S. Air Force, US Navy, US Marine Corps, Royal Canadian Air Force,
Colombian Air Force, Swedish Air Force, and various NATO air forces.
Laser-guided bombs are often labeled "smart bombs" because they are able to follow a non-ballistic trajectory
when laser designation of the intended target is undertaken. According to Raytheon's fact sheet for the Paveway
2, 99 deliveries of guided munitions will yield a circular error probable (CEP) of only 3.6 feet, versus a CEP of 310
Description : GBU-24 Paveway III or simply GBU-24 is a family of laser-guided bombs, a sub-group of the larger
Raytheon Paveway III family of weapons. The Paveway guidance package consists of a seeker package attached
to the nose of the weapon, and a wing kit attached to the rear to provide stability and greater range.
Compared to the GBU-10 family, or the Paveway II family, the GBU-24 glides farther as a result of more efficient
guidance technology. The Paveway III guidance kit is more expensive, however, making the GBU-24 suitable
against well-defended, high-value targets. It was introduced into service c. 1983. This weapon is in service with
the USAF, US Navy, US Marine Corps, and various NATO air forces.
Name : GCS-1
Type : Guided-Bomb
Description : The Joint Direct Attack Munition (JDAM) is a guidance kit that converts unguided bombs, or "dumb
bombs", into all-weather "smart" munitions. JDAM-equipped bombs are guided by an integrated inertial
guidance system coupled to a Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver, giving them a published range of up to
15 nautical miles (28 km). JDAM-equipped bombs range from 500 pounds (227 kg) to 2,000 pounds (907 kg).
When installed on a bomb, the JDAM kit is given a GBU (Guided Bomb Unit) nomenclature, superseding the
Mark 80 or BLU (Bomb, Live Unit) nomenclature of the bomb to which it is attached.
The JDAM is not a stand-alone weapon; rather it is a "bolt-on" guidance package that converts unguided gravity
bombs into Precision-Guided Munitions, or PGMs. The key components of the system consist of a tail section
with aerodynamic control surfaces, a (body) strake kit, and a combined inertial guidance system and GPS
The JDAM was meant to improve upon laser-guided bomb and imaging infrared technology, which can be
hindered by bad ground and weather conditions. Laser seekers are now being fitted to some JDAMs.

Name : CBU-87 CEM / CBU-89 GATOR / CBU-97 SFW / CBU-103 WCMD
Description : The CBU-87 Combined Effects Munition is a cluster bomb used by the United States Air Force,
developed by Aerojet General/Honeywell and introduced in 1986 to replace the earlier cluster bombs used in the
Vietnam War. CBU stands for Cluster Bomb Unit. When the CBU-87 is used in conjunction with the Wind
Corrected Munitions Dispenser guidance tail kit, it becomes a precision-guided weapon, and is designated CBU-
103. Each CBU-87 consists of an SUU-65B canister, a fuze with 12 time delay options and 202 submunitions (or
bomblets) designated BLU-97/B Combined Effects Bomb. Each bomblet is a yellow cylinder with a length of 20
centimeters and a diameter of 6 centimeters. The BLU-97/B bomblets are designed to be used against armour,
personnel and softskin targets and consist of a shaped charge, a scored steel fragmentation case and a zirconium
ring for incendiary effects. The CBU-87 can also be equipped with an optional FZU-39/B proximity sensor with 10
altitude selections.
The GATOR mine system is a US system of air-dropped anti-tank and anti-personnel mines developed in the
1980s to be compatible with existing cluster dispensers. It is used with two dispenser systems—the Navy 230 kg
(500 lb) CBU-78/B and the Air Force 450 kg (1,000 lb) CBU-89/B.
The Air Force CBU-89/B is a 450-kilogram (1,000 lb) cluster munition containing 72 antitank and 22

Description : The GBU-39 Small Diameter Bomb (SDB) is a 250 lb (110 kg) precision-guided glide bomb that is
intended to provide aircraft with the ability to carry a higher number of more accurate bombs. Most US Air Force
aircraft will be able to carry (using the BRU-61/A rack) a pack of four SDBs in place of a single 2,000 lb (907 kg)
bomb.
Name : GBU-53 SDB II
Guide Type : GPS/INS + IIR + Semi-Active Laser + Millimeter wave Active Radar
Description : The GBU-53/B Small Diameter Bomb II is an American air-launched, precision-guided glide bomb.
Development was started in 2006 for a 250 pounds (113 kg) class bomb that can identify and strike mobile
targets from standoff distances in all weather conditions. It will be integrated on the F-15E and F-35 fighters.
The bomb uses GPS/INS system to guide itself into the general vicinity of a moving target during the initial search
phase, with any necessary course correction updates provided using a Link 16 or UHF data link. The bomb has
three modes of target acquisition: millimeter-wave radar, Infrared homing based on uncooled imaging infrared,
and semi-active laser. The weapon is capable of fusing the information from the sensors to classify the target and
can prioritize certain types of targets as desired when used in semi-autonomous mode.
The shaped charge warhead in the bomb has both blast and fragmentation effects, which makes it effective
against infantry, armor (including MBTs), unhardened structures and buildings, as well as patrol craft sized boats
and other soft targets. The bomb would be the first purpose-built no-drive zone enforcement weapon.
Name : AGM-154A/A-1 JSOW
Description : The AGM-154 Joint Standoff Weapon (JSOW) is the product of a joint venture between the United
States Navy and Air Force to deploy a standardized medium range precision guided weapon, especially for
engagement of defended targets from outside the range of standard anti-aircraft defenses, thereby increasing
addition, the AGM-154A-1 configuration is under development by Raytheon for FMS sales. This version replaces
the submunition payload of the AGM-154A with a BLU-111 warhead to enhance blast-fragmentation effects
without the unexploded ordnance (UXO) concerns with the BLU-97/B payload.
Name : Durandal
Description : Named for a mythical medieval French sword, the Durandal is an anti-runway penetration bomb
developed by the French company Matra (now MBDA), designed to destroy airport and airfield runways and
exported to a number of countries worldwide. As a simple crater in a runway could be just filled in, the Durandal
deliberately utilizes two explosions in order to displace the concrete slabs of a runway, damage that is far harder
to repair.
Name : KAB-250
Description : The KAB-250L is a laser semi-active homing 250 kg guided bomb. It is the smallest laser guided
The weapon uses the Azov 27N or later 27N1 semi-active laser homing seeker using an annular airfoil and optical
design similar to the Paveway I/II series. It will provide similar characteristics to the baseline Paveway I/II seeker.
The cited CEP is 3 to 10 metres which is consistent with this size of bomb, style of seeker and the bang-bang
Description : The KAB-500L is a laser-guided bomb developed by the Soviet Air Force. It remains in service with
The KAB-500L is analogous to the U.S. Paveway series: it is a standard FAB-500 general-purpose bomb, which
has a nominal weight of 500 kg (1,100 lb), fitted with a semi-active laser seeker and guidance fins, turning it into
KAB-500S-E is a Precision-Guided Munition (PGM) whose guidance system is based on GLONASS. The weapon
can be dropped from aircraft flying at an altitude from 500 meters to 5000 meters and with an airspeed of 500–
1150 km/h. The CEP is 7–12 meters. These bombs were used for the first time in the Russian military intervention
The KAB-500Kr series are Electro-Optical guided bombs. The seeker employs a gimballed daylight television
imaging sensor under a wide angle glass dome. Unlike the earlier US GBU-8 HOBOS and AGM-65 Maverick
which employed contrast lock technology, the -Kr series guidance system employs Scene Matching Area
Correlation technology more akin to the US Navy DAMASK seeker or Tomahawk DSMAC. This results in the
ability to attack low contrast targets by exploiting the contrast of nearby terrain features or objects. IOC was
achieved in 1984.

Description : The S-8 is a rocket weapon developed by the Soviet Air Force for use by military aircraft. It remains
in service with the Russian Air Force and various export customers.
Developed in the 1970s, the S-8 is an 80 mm (3.1 in) rocket used by fighter bombers and helicopters. The system
entered service in 1984 and is produced in a variety of subtypes with different warheads, including HEAT anti-
armor, high-explosive fragmentation, smoke, and incendiary, as well as the specialized S-8BM runway-destroying
munition and the S-8DM fuel-air explosive variants. Each rocket is between 1.5 meters (4 ft 11 in) and 1.7
meters (5 ft 7 in) long and weighs between 11.3 kg (25 lb) and 15.2 kg (33.5 lb), depending on warhead and

Description : The AN/ALQ-131 Electronic Countermeasures (ECM) pod is the most successful ECM system ever
built. Northrop Grumman has fielded more than 1,600 ALQ-131 pods, which used state-of-the-art technology to
successfully protect aircrews and aircraft in every conflict since becoming operational in the 1980s.
Description : The ALQ-184 is a self-protect electronic countermeasures (ECM) electronic warfare (EW) pod used
on U.S. Air Force tactical aircraft. Its computer-controlled multibeam receivers and mini-TWT amplifiers operate in
both receive and transmit modes to selectively direct high power jamming against multiple emitters. The system
provides instantaneous RF signal processing that is wide open in angle and frequency. Features such as a high
sensitivity multibeam receiver, continuous wave, pulse and pulse Doppler allow a 100 percent probability of
threat detection.
Description : The AN/ASQ-213 HARM Targeting Systems (HTS) Pod has opened up a whole new mission for the
F-16. With HARM/HTS, the F-16 picked up the demanding mission of suppression of enemy air defenses (SEAD),
once performed primarily by the F-4G Wild Weasel aircraft. The F-16 is truly a multirole unit in addition to the
primary SEAD mission, it also flies air superiority, defense counter air, and air interdiction missions. Originally
developed by Texas Instruments under a program to provide new modular targeting systems for USAF aircraft, it
is the key to USAF's effort in SAM hunting now and in the 21st century. The pod is 8 inches in diameter, 56
inches long and weighs 85 pounds. Most important of the HTS' capabilities is the ability to rapidly generate
ranges to target radars, as well as to provide greater discretion between different types of enemy radars.
Description : Low Altitude Navigation and Targeting Infrared for Night, or LANTIRN, is a combined navigation
and targeting pod system for use on the USAF's premier fighter aircraft — the F-15E Strike Eagle and F-16
Fighting Falcon (Block 40/42 C & D models). LANTIRN significantly increases the combat effectiveness of these
aircraft, allowing them to fly at low altitudes, at night and under-the-weather to attack ground targets with a
Description : The Lockheed Martin Sniper is a targeting pod for military aircraft that provides positive target
identification, autonomous tracking, GPS coordinate generation, and precise weapons guidance from extended
standoff ranges.
The system has been designated AN/AAQ-33 in U.S. Military Service as the Sniper Advanced Targeting Pod (ATP).
Further variants are the Sniper Extended Range (XR), as well as the PANTERA export derivative of the Sniper XR.
The Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II is built with the equivalent of the Sniper XR in its onboard sensors.
Name : AN/AAQ-28 LITENING
Description : The AN/AAQ-28(V) LITENING targeting pod is an Israeli-designed precision targeting pod system
currently operational with a wide variety of combat aircraft. LITENING significantly increases the combat
effectiveness of the aircraft during day, night and under-the-weather conditions in the attack of ground and air[1]
targets with a variety of standoff weapons (i.e., laser-guided bombs, conventional bombs and GPS-guided
weapons).
Description : Legion Pod is a multi-function sensor system that supports collaborative targeting operations in
radar-denied environments. Flexible by design and production-ready, Legion Pod is set to serve as the next sensor
system of choice for fixed-wing aircraft. Housed in a 16-inch diameter structure, Legion Pod’s baseline
configuration includes an IRST21 sensor and advanced processor for high-fidelity detection and tracking of air-to-
air targets. Also Legion Pod has a common interface, meaning it’s easily integrated onto any aircraft without
