How can you lock on to the Prowler to shoot it down when you are entirely electronically blind? I was in VMAQ-2 during my tour in the Marines and in that time thru war games to our raid on Libya, no Q2 pilot was ever acquired by enemy radar that I ever read about in our after actions reports. That being said, I doubt EA-6B squadrons are assisting the Israelis.

It is my radar maybe blind so jammed. But.. My harm missile will home on its emitting source very easy. The head of my missile just homing on any source of electromagnetic waves so on the jamming waves of this airplane emitting.
