AN / ALQ-172 B-52 Self Protection System

A self-protection system for the B-52 that counters new and emerging threats

Continuous upgrades to the ALQ-172 have incorporated Geolocation situational awareness capability on the B-52, advanced counter-measures in response to modern threats, and new technologies to improve performance, maintainability, and supportability. The ALQ-172(V)3 provides extended frequency coverage required to counter new and emerging threats.

Looking to the future, L3Harris is developing the next ALQ-172 system upgrade designed to meet the needs of the B-52 and its crew through 2040. The ALQ-172 MARS upgrade reduces system weight and power requirements while further improving system performance, maintainability, and reliability. MARS improves system performance by adding the latest processing and digital receivers through the use of FPGA-based technology.
