    The F-16 fighters received by Ukraine are equipped with Terma PIDS+ pylons with a missile attack early warning system.

    .

    This is evidenced by footage from a video published today, August 4, on the official Telegram channel of the President of Ukraine, the publication “Military” reports.

    It is noted that the Danish Terma system was installed on fighters of all countries participating in the European Air Force (EPAF). In 2018, Denmark, Norway, the Netherlands and Belgium ordered Terma PIDS+ pylons with the Hensoldt AAR-60 (V) 2 Missile Warning System (MWS) for their F-16s.

    All of the countries listed were supposed to hand over these fighters to Ukraine, so it is unknown which of these countries received the aircraft shown in the video.

    The MWS system provides a vital enhancement to the F-16’s self-defense suite by allowing the aircraft to detect and counter incoming missiles early:

    • consists of six sensors and one computer. Three sensors are mounted on each of the two pylons, their arrangement providing almost complete spherical coverage around the aircraft;
    • The computer is mounted in the right pylon. The AAR-60(V)2 transmits threat information to the Terma ALQ-213 countermeasures control system located in the cockpit;
    • The ALQ-213 selects the most effective sequence for firing flares from the Flare-Up module located in the PIDS+ pylon;
    • The decoys are fired at an angle such that they shoot diagonally downwards and do not hit the missile mounted on the wingtip of the fighter.

    Terma is reportedly supplying Flare-Up kits for the US Air National Guard’s F-16s, at the same time the US Air Force ordered the Israeli systems in 2020.
