EA-6B Prowler

An aircraft that established quite the track record of meeting battle requirements although its predecessor EA-6A was simply a provisional craft of an A-6 Intruder endowed with EW capabilities. This led to the development of this EA-6B which was redesigned to act as an electronic interference aircraft. The enlarged cockpit houses 1 pilot and 3 EW crewmen, and sees a drastic improvement in ECM capabilities. Nicknamed "Prowler," the EA-6B continues its operation being updated over time. As an all-weather aircraft able to be transported by ship and deployed for long distances, its main tasks are hindering enemy EW and supporting ground force attacks. It is also able to gather electronic information and use anti-radar missiles to attack enemy power sources on its own. Equipment relating to electronic interference transmission antennas are kept in pods and are attached to 5 hardpoints on the bottom of the aircraft. A turbine is attached to the pods to generate its electricity.

Limit breaks

Each limit break raises the level cap and adds part slots or special weapons. Costs are for that step; the totals are everything paid from the start. Upgrade Blueprints are specific to the EA-6B; General Purpose Upgrade Blueprints work on any aircraft.
