Currently, the issue of individual-mutual protection of fighter and attack aircraft is becoming an acute problem due to significant progress in the field of radio-electronic weapon control systems. Modern electronic warfare systems allow the enemy to aim at a target and effectively hit it even in the absence of reliable information about the target’s range and speed, using only directional information. To effectively counter such means, it is necessary to influence the target tracking channels along by angle.

Development of an approach aimed at the formation of blinking jamming that ensures disruption of the angular tracking of the target of the monopulse locator of the homing head of the missile during individual mutual protection of aircraft.

An approach has been developed to the formation of synchronized blinking jamming from two sides for individual and mutual protection of front-line aircraft.

The developed approach can be applied in the design of electronic defense systems for 5th generation frontline aviation aircraft.
