Annex 

Item No. vii 

(vii) Sensitivity of Technology: 

1. The AN/ALR–56M is a computer 

controlled radar warning receiver 

(RWR). It monitors the environment in 

an effort to detect radar signals. Upon 

detection and identification of a valid 

radar signal, emitter identification is 

conveyed to the AN/ALE–47 

countermeasures dispenser system. The 

ALR–56M has thirteen line replaceable 

units (LRUs): four I/J band DF receivers, 

an Analysis Processor, a Superhet 

Controller, a Superhet Receiver, a C/D 

band Receiver/Power supply, four I/J 

band antennas, and one C/D band 

antenna. 

2. The AN/ALE–47 Counter-Measures 

Dispensing System (CMDS) is an 

integrated, threat-adaptive, softwareprogrammable dispensing system 

capable of dispending chaff, flares, and 

active radio frequency expendables. The 

system is internally mounted and may 

be operated as a stand-alone system or 

may be integrated with other on-board 

electronic warfare and avionics systems. 

The AN/ALE–47 uses data received over 

the aircraft interfaces to assess the threat 

situation and to determine a response. 

3. The highest level of classification of 

information included in this potential 

sale is SECRET. 

4. If a technologically advanced 

adversary were to obtain knowledge of 

the specific hardware and software 

elements, the information could be used 

to develop countermeasures which 

might reduce weapon system 

effectiveness or be used in the 

development of a system with similar or 

advanced capabilities. 

5. A determination has been made 

that the recipient country can provide 

the same degree of protection for the 

sensitive technology being released as 

the U.S. Government. The sale is 

necessary in furtherance of the U.S. 

foreign policy and national security 

objectives outline in the Policy 

Justification. 

6. All defense articles and services 

listed in this transmittal have been 

authorized for release and export to the 

Government of India.
