potentially marginally effective EW platform because of it.




What are your concerns and criticisms?

My father is in charge of the Growler program. I'd be interested in his
responses to your criticisms.


My interpretation of his criticisms is the typical litany of E/F
airframe-based complaints: short range, not as fast as the F-18C let
alone the F-14. Maybe a cliche sums it up, "Mr. Right Now" instead of
"Mr. Right."

Not that I agree or disagree. Tacair, acquisitions, and program
management are not my areas of expertise. My working knowledge of those
is Janes/History Channel level
