During 1976, the F-15 Eagle was fielded.
This was the first USAF aircraft, having Electronic Warfare equipment inbuilt.



The AN/ALQ-135 system had E/I band coverage, effectively jamming the SA-1/2/3/4/Whiff/Fire Can systems.

Strange....
1. How do they know SA-1 capabilities as it was stationed around Moscow only?
2. Why they still want to jam it, as it is highly unlikely that a single F-15 could reach Moscow?...

But somehow a single C-172 managed just that... from Finland, in 1987 - landing right in the middle of the city right outside the Kremlin. Afterwards Red Square was occasionally referred to as Sheremetyevo-3

Only educated guesses. But the SA-1 was developed with the assistance of German scientists. When Stalin died, the scientists were allowed to return home, and were very thoroughly interviewed by the US. They may have got enough information that way.

Or ELINT aircraft may have helped. Or old fashioned spies. The SA-1 entered service 30 years before the F-15, that's three decades for spies to get their hands on technical documents.

As to why? Maybe it was easy, so why not? In the event of WW3, I think the idea was the Russians would reach Paris, or NATO would reach Moscow. So it wasn't completely impossible they'd meet.

And according to wikipedia ( though most other sources disagree ), the SA-1 was exported to North Korea in 1962. So the F-15 might have faced them there.

You do not believe it was not seen at all, aren't you?

"Wobble" is a random change in frequency (not just 2 frequencies we have in basic "Goa").....

Never seen SA-1 in N.Korea (easy to identify) on Google Earth, and also it is highly unlikely that it was ever exported outside of SU.
(the export version was the SA-2)

See here

They write it has a fiber optic link, but it applies to AN/ALE-55, but it has a different shape.

Very nice find!

#4 seems odd to me.

Google translate says: "PPI screen when exposed to continuous noise interference (on screen
wound observed darkened sector due to overload receiver tract)"

I wish I spoke Russian

Yes, that's true.... The jamming is so heavy, that it overloaded the receiver... So, the jammer should be somewhere in the dark... wink

Great collection, probably each would deserve a separate discussion, but now I want to highlight the Spirals...





This is usually caused by a similar equipment at the firing range on a closeby location.

Just to warn, I'm planning a series of the Easter side EW - EA equipments...
... it might be a good prelude for the future.

I can confirm that for OSA AK(M) !
