Turkey’s Lockheed Martin F-16C/D fleet will receive a bolstered electronic warfare capability, after Harris was awarded a contract to provide more defensive aids suites for the air force.
Awarded by the US Air Force Air Logistics Center at Robins AFB in Georgia, the deal will lead to Harris providing 21 ALQ-211 advanced integrated defensive electronic warfare suite (AIDEWS) pods for integration on the Turkish air force’s F-16 fleet. The contract also covers maintenance, spares and engineering support.

The ALQ-211 system includes a radar warning receiver, digital radio frequency memory jammer and electronic warfare suite controller. The protection suite is integrated into the US Special Operations Command’s Bell Boeing CV-22 Osprey tiltrotor and the Royal Norwegian Air Force’s NH Industries NH90 multi-mission helicopter, plus F-16s for Chile, Oman, Pakistan and Poland.
