Certain trends are evident in recent Navy aircraft electronic update programs. For example, increased night combat capability is one obvious trend. Recent fieldings of 'night attack' models of the F/A-18C/D and the AV-8B night vision aircraft have been followed by the addition of forward-looking infrared (FLIR) to other aircraft. Secondly, new contract awards also point to the wider proliferation of electronic countermeasure systems. And, sophisticated electronic aircraft-like Grumman's E-2C 'Hawkeye'-are gaining new supporters as they prove their worth in the military's expanding role in the war on drugs. Finally, specialized training devices are growing in importance in direct correlation to other electronic upgrades.
