- The Royal Australian Air Force has proudly shown off its Boeing EA-18G Growler electronic attack aircraft during Exercise Red Flag in Nevada.
Inspired by some of the features of the F/A-18F Super Hornet and the US Marine Corps' Prowler aircraft, the Boeing EA-18G Growler's primary role is to jam enemy radar systems.
The aircraft is armed with an AGM-88 missile which can be used to knock out radar systems on the ground. It also has an ALQ-99 pod which can be used to attack a range of different targets.
Flight Lieutenant Jacob Murphy explains the role of the Boeing EA-18G Growler.

‘Growler’ has a whole other meaning where I grew up. 😂
Obviously the person who named this version of the F/A18 didn't check out Urban Dictionary ;)
It used to be a pie, now it’s……
Or maybe they did…
Nice growler.
Gotta love the Growler. So much classified technology in it for being a 4th gen aircraft. Expensive, but really worth it. Shame more NATO nations don't have them.
That's why the RAAF is making inroads of being one of the few Air Force with a robust EW expertise as a force multiplier in future conflicts.
I think other countries don't have money or necessary for a separate electronic attack aircraft. Only Australia, Japan and US need this to counter China. Europe can stop anything from Russia
Go Aussies 💪💪💪 🇦🇺
"Drives the plane."
He is gonna hear about that for a while. Oh, and the growler stuff too
I hope we are sharing the tech with AUS and the UK
From New Hampshire, I really appreciate your content. Short but very sweet.
I see that both the us and aus are using that growler, it can can handle multiple users easily. 😏
I wish the RAF had a Squadron of those and some HARM, we retired the ALARM about 10 years ago.
In Forces News we trust
6 Squadron rules. 👍🇦🇺
The Canadian Airforce is absent again because we have very few fighter jets... The ones we do have are Legacy CF 18 Hornets... The Navy's another sad story... Pathetic!!!
at least your special forces were Nice enough to ask the Ukrainian Special forces to rescue your citizens about 3 blocks down (on foot) outside of the Kabul airport gates and brought them safely back to safety, while your military chose to catch the last airtaxi ride out of Afghanistan before the Brits and Americans.
@@al28854 Ouch!
Can this technology be installed in smaller unmanned submarines and use them like drone swarms to sneak up on navy ships or air defense systems near shorelines catching them by surprise without putting aircrafts in risk of being shot down.
That's a great ide
not perse on submarines, due to air and water acting differently with certain frequencies, also, these jamming pods are meant to be used as a stand-off weapon being out of enemy missle ranges, and being well protected by friendly fighter, plus they usually carry A/A missles aswel themselves, and using drones wont be as effective, because if enemies can somehow take over the drone with this highly classified material, then it can cause massive troubles for friendly forces. so maybe to an extent, but I know as much as you as most of this stuff in classified.
No its designed for use in the air.
US, UK AND AUSTRALIA CAN WORK WELL TOGETHER! Especially, if they remember that the real enemies are those sowing seeds of discord among democracies.
Yes! Americans are at each other's throats when the real enemy is abroad. We don't realize we've been under attack by Russia and China for years.
They do this through immigration from hostile nations, primarily China, India and Russia
You must be talking about liberals.
@@corey8420 That talk/thought is exactly what OP is talking about.
+1 I couldn't agree more with your statement. Well said.
AhHaHa. Can't believe they called it a growler. Nice one cuzzies.
This same bloke can be seen in his double pluggers down at Bunnings, picking up a new mower and grabbing a snag on the way out to support the local primary school. On ya cobber
Don’t need the background music
Bunch of children making comments.

They offered this and super hornet to Finland, but we chose F-35.
Australia is replacing its old super hornets with F35As.
Ya Australia have f35s too!
@@awf6554 There Super Hornets aren't going anywhere, the F35s are in addition to them.
@@goodshipkaraboudjan Spot on. If you need to throw AIM-174s and LRASMs en masse you need Supers.
Unfortunate name... obviously don't mean the same in the US as it does in the UK!!!.😂😂😂
Almost as good as the Mitsubishi Pajero. Had to be renamed for Spain
Very capable but I wonder how those systems compare to those developed by the Israelis.
Dusty muff
And if it weren't for our touchy-feely, rose coloured glasses, " I'm sorry" (said with Prime Minister tears), the RCAF would be there as well.
Go on lads…give your enemies all the info they need.Good job showing of military hardware.
Exactly...you couldn't make this 💩 up!!.♥️🇬🇧🇺🇦
All the info he gave in this clip is already widely available, and is of little use to an enemy.
Have you heard of Google?
Send 400 to Ukraine 🇺🇦
This is an American aircraft given to Australia.
Given. Lol. Bought and paid for sunshine.
They cost us a bomb, so certainly not "given".
@@awf6554 lol did I say they were given for free? Just trying to clarify the misleading title
@@Noah-ez2xdClarify your own post first.
He’s not a Flight Lefftenant, he’s a Flight Lootenant. (The Aussies use the US pronunciation)
If you have to choose, you might as well go with the more logical one
Letenant actually.
Um no.
We are like the UK.
Army and RAAF use one pronunciation, RAN uses another.
If I had pronounced, it Lootenant I would've got my arse kicked
Absolutely not. Only the RAN pronounce it the US way, the RAAF and Army pronounce it the British way.
Wake up, or we will all be in trouble! Friends, the international social project Creative Society is gaining momentum in the world! People from different countries, nationalities, and religions unite to build a fair society! Only together we can change everything! I told you the truth, everything is in our hands!❗️❗️
Australia is proud of acquiring a system they cannot effectively utilise 👏
Not another Russian troll. Don't worry these will never go anywhere near Ukraine, so leave the Australians alone.
Wur?
A TH-cam comment section isn't a proper TH-cam comment section without the typical "expert" who strongly believe he knows everything better than everyone else, while in reality he doesn't even know what he's talking about.
What about you give us some arguments, Mr. the Australian military expert?
Matthew J - wrong
Why can't they properly utilize it?
