==Krasukha-2== The Krasukha-2 is an S-band system designed to jam Airborne Early Warning and Control (AWACS) aircraft such as the Boeing E-3 Sentry at ranges of up to . The Krasukha-2 can also jam other airborne radars, such as those for radar-guided missiles. The missiles, once jammed, then receive a false target away from the original to ensure that the missiles no longer pose a threat. The Krasukha-2 guards mobile high-priority targets such as the 9K720 Iskander SRBM.
