F-16CJ "Angry Kitten" Deployment: New Electronic Warfare Tech vs. Iran Defenses.

Описание: In a major strategic shift, the South Carolina Air National Guard’s F-16CJ "Wild Weasel" fighters have been deployed to the Middle East equipped with the cutting-edge Angry Kitten electronic warfare pod. This deployment, confirmed in February 2026, marks the first operational combat use of the Angry Kitten—a system that utilizes Digital Radio Frequency Memory (DRFM) and machine-learning algorithms to autonomously "capture" and manipulate hostile radar signals. Designed to counter advanced integrated air defense systems, such as those protecting Iranian airspace, the pod allows the aging F-16 platform to adapt to evolving threats in real-time. Paired with the AN/ASQ-213 HARM Targeting System, these specialized fighters from the 169th Fighter Wing provide a formidable shield for U.S. forces, bridging the gap between legacy fourth-generation capabilities and the high-tech demands of modern electromagnetic warfare.
