Behold the Most Ruthless and Astonishing Vehicles in the American Military
Boeing EA-18G Growler – Cost: $125 million
The Boeing EA-18G Growler is an airborne electronic attack (AEA) aircraft designed to replace the Navy’s EA-6B Prowler. The Growler is primarily used to conduct electronic attacks and suppress enemy air forces during the onset of hostilities. This versatile aircraft can be deployed from both land-based airfields and aircraft carriers.
The EA-18G Growler is modeled after the F/A-18F Super Hornet, but with a more advanced electronic suite. Boeing first introduced the EA-18G Growler in 2008, boasting a top speed of 1,217 miles per hour. This aircraft has become a staple of the US Navy air wing, providing the capability for air-to-air combat and intelligence gathering.
