What are the sensitivity levels for the wingtip
E-J band?
Full
Medium (full -12dB)
Low (full -25dB)
What are the sensitivity levels in the wingtip C/D band?
Full
Low (full-30dB)
Wingtip Channel (Wideband)
Primary signal detection
Detect pulse and CW (except for CW in C/D band)
Wingtip power supply
Provides power to all C/D and E-J wingtip receivers.
Contains EMI AND RFI filters for both input and output.
Spinning DF Antenna
C/D and E-J antennas mounted on a turntable
- 5-18.0 GHz range:
- 5 - 2.0= vertically polarized / 2.0 - 18.0= horizontally polarized
PEU
Controls signals to spinning DF antenna
Powers PA-160
Receives heading data from INS
PA-160
Sends signals to PEU and SP-160
Compensates for coaxial line loss and provides additional sensitivity while ensuring signal fidelity.
Microwave Tuner
Converts RF to IF and routes to SP-160
Band Reject Filter
E- band is filtered to reject radar altimeter.
Major functions of the SP-160.
Automated wideband signal acquisition. Threat warning. Frequency measurement for ambiguous resolution. C/D band CW threat detection. SEI data collection capability.
How many threat priority levels are there?
1-7 with 1 being most lethal or of special interest to the mission.
How are level 1 and 2 emitters displayed?
In red with an accompanied audio tone.
