The pod variant incorporates identical hardware configuration from AIDEWS and is similar to ALQ-131 electronic countermeasures pods on US Air Force and international F-16s.

AIDEWS, based on the ALQ-211 family of electronic warfare systems, is an integrated digital receiver-based radar warning and jamming countermeasures system that provides pilots with situational awareness and protection against radar-based threats.

Work will be carried out at ITT’s Electronic Systems business in Clifton, New Jersey, US, Defense-Aerospace reported.
