The Northrop Grumman (formerly Grumman) EA-6B Prowler is a twin-engine, four-seat, mid-wing electronic-warfare aircraft derived from the A-6 Intruder airframe. The EA-6A was the initial electronic warfare version of the A-6 used by the United States Marine Corps and United States Navy; it was used during the Vietnam War.
The ALQ-218 is mainly featured aboard the U.S. Navy's Boeing EA-18G Growler aircraft, [3] [4] which has replaced the EA-6B Prowler in the U.S. Navy. [5] The ALQ-218 was previously on the Grumman EA-6B Prowler, which the Improved Capability III ALQ-218 was modified and integrated into the EA-18G's Airborne Electronic Attack (AEA) system. [6]
Gives the AN/SPG-62 a high radar resolution, which makes it more effective in determining if there is one contact or multiple contacts [4] Enables the AN/SPG-62 to serve as a secondary, rudimentary search radar (in conjunction with the SPY-1 or SPY-6) [4] Requires a relatively low level of energy to operate (10 kW peak power on average) [1]

The first radar of the radar family AN/APG-76 belongs to is AN/APQ-92, which equipped A-6A.AN/APQ-92 is a search and navigational radar, with function called search radar terrain clearance (SRTC) to generate a synthetic terrain display on the pilot's Vertical Display Indicator (VDI), which is a large cathode ray tube (CRT) display in the center of the pilot's console, right under the gun sight.
However, unlike Mk.63, the fire-control radar was installed on the directional board rather than on the gun side. [6] Of AN/SPG-34, Mk.63 adopted mod.1 and mod.2 while Mk.57 adopted mod.3 and mod.4. [4] Later, based on the Mk.63, the Mk.70 was also developed as a derivative of the Ku-band AN/SPG-52 range-finding radar. [1]
Furthermore, it has also created performance enhancement packages for the Dodge Viper and Plymouth Prowler. In January 1998, MotorTrend tested a Chevrolet Tahoe modified and tuned by Lingenfelter, powered by a 396 (6.5L) cubic inch Chevrolet V8 and achieved a 5.1-second 0-60 time as well as a 0.9g lateral acceleration figure. The SUV completed ...
