That tactic is similar to the one where pilots do a downward dive to beam ( 9 o'clock or 3 o'clock ), and then do a hard turn into the missile during the last few seconds of guidance. This tactic in the diagram above is for pilots who desire to use their jammer to evade, the one I stated is used by pilots who decide not to use it. This is because the ALQ-131 is only effective when the aircraft is either facing the SNR, or running away from the SNR. Also, Hpasp, surprise question, how would YOU employ standoff jammer aircraft during an air campaign or an air strike?
