EA-18G Growler - Is It Retiring? Will The Air Force Fly It?
Показать описание
EA-18G Growler retirement? In a move that surprised many, the Navy has proposed shutting down all five non carrier based expeditionary electronic attack squadrons as part of its fy2023 budget request. If enacted, the 25 EA18 Growlers assigned to those units would be sent to the boneyard in Tucson Arizona and put in long term storage. Additionally the proposal would see just over one thousand officers and enlisted personnel from the five squadrons cut or transferred as a result of inactivating the Growlers. Today we will take a look at why this is a bad idea, how the Air Force and Navy Reserve could keep the Growler flying, what future replacements there may be for the Growler, and how the EA-18G could have been used in a summer blockbuster movie you may have seen.
