- A-10 Thunderbolt II [r]: A heavily armed close air support and ground attack aircraft, which can loiter over a battlefield and then hit targets with great accuracy, while retaining high survivability against ground fire. [e]
- ALE-55 [r]: An active electronic attack remote device targeted at radar, spooled out by an AN/ALE-47 dispenser, which can run through the flame of an afterburner and, at the end of its tether, act as a deceptive decoy trackbreaker or a seductive sacrificial decoy [e]
- ALQ-165 [r]: An obsolete electronic warfare jammer on F-111 and F-18 Super Hornet aircraft, replaced on the Super Hornets with the AN/ALQ-214 [e]
- ALQ-184 [r]: A 1990s-vintage multiband radar jammer, in current use, that can use the AN/ALE-50 towed decoy, used by the U.S. and Taiwan [e]
- ALQ-213 [r]: A Danish Air Force-designed electronics countermeasures suite controller used on aircraft of many countries [e]
