UKPonchoMan Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 Can anyone help - looking to understand the differences between the ALQ-119, ALQ-131 and ALQ-184. I know the ALQ-131 is the boxy one, but I'm confused by the "short" and "long" and "deep" and "shallow" versions! Pics would be great too! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
shull24 Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 Here you go. I don't have the ALQ-119, but it's very similar to the -184, except the bottom part dose not go as far back. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
David Walker Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 Now that is perfect. Pictures I can understand. :) Thanks Shawn. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
UKPonchoMan Posted October 28, 2008 Author Share Posted October 28, 2008 Shawn - that's excellent - thank's very much! The kits I'm working from have some pods in them, but I really wasn't sure whether they were -119's or -184's. You've now answered THAT question!! Chris Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AndrewS Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 Hello all, Chris, I hope you don't mind my piggybacking your thread with my own question, but it is USAF ECM pod-related...... Does anyone have pictures of an ALQ-119 (or the 'externally similar' QRC 80-01, as described by Jim Rotramel in one of his Hyperscale reference articles on the Pig) mounted just aft of the M61 fairing on an F-111D? And yes, I realise that the linked article contains pictures of the pylon and pods in that position, but I'm hoping for larger images. I've also seen two pictures of 27 TFW -Ds carrying 'short' ALQ-119 (I think!) in this position on Airliners.net, taken by Alex Christie in '83; they're great images but just don't quite show what I'm after. Here's hoping...... Thanks, Andrew. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
John Wolstenholme Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 Some great detail shots of ALQ-119 on an F-4F here: http://data3.primeportal.net/hangar/luc_co...4f_07_of_59.jpg Also, _08, _09, _10 and _11. Assuming it is the same version as you are looking for! Regards John Quote Link to post Share on other sites
