Onboard Missile Systems
AN/ALQ-162 Airborne Self Protection Jammer (ASPJ)
The AN/ALQ-162 automatically scans for threat signals, identifies threat, and generates countermeasures. The AN/ALQ-162 CMS provides automatic radar jamming against surface-to-air and airborne intercept missiles that use continuous wave (CW) radar for guidance. When the CW signals detected by the CMS are validated, jamming is initiated. The specific action taken by the MS is determined by the jamming thresholds programmed into the CMS. The ALQ-162 is designed to intercept and process Continuous Wave (CW) signals, and upgrades under evaluation include responses to pulse doppler radars. Jamming signals are produced in various formats to counter threat signals. The system is operated via a control panel located in the aircraft cockpit and can be used for stand-alone operation or in conjunction with a RWR which supplies threat identification signals. The compact, lightweight ALQ-162 countermeasures set can be installed in pod, pylon or internal configurations.
The AN/ALQ-162(V)4 CMS is reprogrammable and is programmed to respond to the CW signals of the most critical threat weapon systems anticipated to be encountered by the MH-47E in a hostile environment. The AN/ALQ-162(V)4 CMS consists of one receiver/transmitter and one antenna. The total system weight is 41 pounds.
Outer Skin Layer Protective Cover
The outer "skin" of the missile is highly reflective and can withstand the heat of an earth reentry and of a satellite laser, rendering space based satellite lasers ineffective against this type of missile attack. The custom Mk 75A warhead itself also has this prototective sheet, with the exception that once it reaches a ballistic trajectory inside of earths atmosphere, it jettisons the sheeting and initiates a small internal cooling system which lowers the heat signature of the warhead, making it nearly undetectable to even the strongest radar.
The outermost layer of the warhead (after the solver protective sheeting has been jettisoned) is not metal like most warheads. It is of a ceramic type material, as used on a Delta rocket's payload faring, giving it no radar signature, this adding to its undetectability during its descent.
Active Countermeasures
To protect the missile from oncoming ABM missile attacks from the defending nation, multiple heat seeking sensors are places strategically around the body of the missile scanning the ground below for any signs of oncominng missiles. The computer inside of the missile immediately calculates the ABM's trajectory, velocity, and altitude to determine when to deploy several explosive munitions hidden internally, which detonate at a time of the computers setting to obliverate the oncoming missile(s). The missile can protect itself from multiple Anti Ballistic Missiles at one time (exact number is classified), making this one of the most lethal conventional ICBM's ever created.
