Citat:The Australian government has taken a significant step towards upgrading Australia’s airborne electronic warfare capability. The country’s Defense Force has selected local firm CEA Technologies to help perform the upgrades to the EA-18G as part of the $6 billion Project AIR 5349 Phase 6 project.Currently approved funding for the project sits at around $2 billion, with CEA’s cut being $277 million.
The upgrades to Australia’s EA-18G Growler will bring the aircraft up to the latest U.S. capabilities. The upgrades will include a Next-Generation Jammer to replace the aging AN/ALQ-99, sensor upgrades, increasing the stockpile of anti-radiation missiles, and new anti-radiation missiles.

mornarica ima problema oko super horneta. naime, mnogo brze "stare" od svojih prethodika.
The Navy’s F/A-18E/F Super Hornet fighter aircraft are not aging as well as the F/A-18C/D Hornets and other Navy aircraft, according to a new Congressional Budget Office report.
Although Super Hornets currently have a higher mission-capable rate than Hornets, when the two airframes are compared over time, the Hornets have been more reliable, according to CBO researchers.
The Super Hornets were introduced to the fleet in the mid-to-late 1990s, roughly a decade after the Hornets, but the Super Hornets have had lower availability rates — that is, the percentage of time an aircraft is capable of being flown for training or missions — compared to Hornets at similar points in their life cycles.
In the mid-to-late 2000s, after 10 years in the fleet, the Super Hornet had roughly a 41 percent availability rate, compared to the 59 percent availability rate of Hornets after a decade in service.
“When compared with F/A-18C/Ds of the same age, the Super Hornet fleet has had lower availability rates,” the report said. “For example, Super Hornet availability at age 10 was about 18 percentage points lower than F/A-18C/D availability at age 10 and is comparable to F/A-18C/D availability at age 20. These findings suggest that age has had a more adverse effect on Super Hornets than it did on F/A-18C/Ds.”
The Navy said many factors contributed to this disparity, including the “greater levels of galvanic corrosion arising from the greater use of composite metals in Super Hornets.”

Horneti su sluzili uz F-14 i A-6 dugo godina. Super Hornet je vecinu vremena bio sam uz Hornet. Leteli su vise za krace vreme. Eno na prethodnoj strani avion koji je dosao na produzenje resursa je ispucao prvih fabrickih 6000( 6200) sati za 20 godina, to je 310 sati godisnje u uslovima na nosacu. Zato ih sada podizu na 7500 pa ce posle moci na 10 000.
