Sur le papier, parce que toute cette technologie, ben des fois ça ne marche pas bien ensemble (cf B-1B)
(But the most serious problem was the defective defensive electronic suite. The primary defensive system, the AN/ALQ 161A, automatically receives, identifies and jams radar threats instantaneously, but can be operated manually. It was discovered early on that there were instances in which the B-1B electronic system jammed itself. What was never acknowledged was the ability of well trained B-1B crews to compensate for the deficiencies of the system, which has since been augmented by the ALE 50 towed decoy array.)
