Variants |
ADM-160A - Original decoy version developed by Teledyne Ryan (acquired by Northrop Grumman) and funded by DARPA. It uses GPS-aided navigation system, and can fly missions with up to 256 predefined waypoints. The mission profile is preprogrammed, but can be redefined by the pilot of the launching aircraft until immediately before launch.
ADM-160B - Decoy version developed by Raytheon with longer endurance. In use by the USAF.
ADM-160C "MALD-J" - Jammer variant of ADM-160B by Raytheon. This variant is able to operate in both decoy and jammer modes. The decoy and jammer configurations were key enablers supporting the Air Force Global Strike, Global Response, Space and C4ISR, and the Air and Space Expeditionary Force Concepts of Operations. MALD-J provides stand-in jamming capability for the Airborne Electronic Attack Systems of Systems. It would be launched against a preplanned target and jam specific radars in a stand-in role to degrade or deny the IADS detection of friendly aircraft or munitions. Delivery to the US Armed Forces was to begin in 2012, when the Air Force ended procurement of the ADM-160B and would only procure MALD-J versions.
