idk about tested, but F-14’s use ALE-39 so it should be fair game
ehh for f14s and a10c, and lower tier f18/f16 adding these might not be well balanced, for their BR POD jammers are more relevant across a lot of jets.
adding these makes sense only to like 13.7 or above BRs
for a10cs it might be okay because they struggle at their BRs anyways

The F-14D in specific also uses the ALE-47.

Bump.
After watching the CBT… I really hope spawns will have anti-drone jammers spread throughout the spawn to jam incoming drones… It’s possible to spawn fresh, throw up an FPV drone and immediately go straight into enemy spawn.
But also, a specific infantryman that carries around a portable jammer wouldn’t hurt either ;)
So many possibilities with ECM :)
Why does this even have to be suggested, ECM should have been introduced ages ago
The issue is that ECM isn’t a ‘one-size-fits-all’ mechanic. Implementing it broadly without accounting for the massive technical leaps between aircraft generations would break game balance. Posts like these give developers a researched baseline to work with, allowing them to expand the mechanic internally with the nuance it actually needs.
I love this! Please please add this functionality, especially for things like the RAH 66 heli.
