List of military electronics of the United States: A–G

For a general summary of the JETDS nomenclature system, see List of military electronics of the United States. For a full description of the JETDS system, see Joint Electronics Type Designation System.

This subpage lists American military electronic instruments/systems along with brief descriptions. This stand-alone list specifically identifies electronic devices which are assigned designations (names) according to the Joint Electronics Type Designation System (JETDS) beginning with the AN/ prefix. They are grouped below by the first designation letter following this prefix. The list is organized as sorted tables that reflect the purpose, uses and manufacturers of each listed item.

Due to page size considerations, the full list was split into sub-pages. The list on this page only shows designations where the first letter after AN/ is between A and G. For all designations between M and Z, please see List of military electronics of the United States: M–Z.

For a general summary of the JETDS nomenclature system, see List of military electronics of the United States. For a full description of the JETDS system, see Joint Electronics Type Designation System.

NOTE: Letters E, H, I, J, L, N, O, Q, R, X and Y are not used in the first-position of JETDS nomenclatures.

Notes

1. As reported by Asia Military Review in January 2025,^[251] the frequency range of the latest ALQ-231 Block-X version may reach up to 40 GHz (7.5 mm)
2. The B-52J Radar Modernization Program (RMP) upgrade is still in development, expected in service by 2033,^[430][431] so the APQ-188 is planned for the B-52J
3. The AN/APS-130 was originally manufactured by Norden Systems beginning in 1976 which was sold to Westinghouse Electric Corp then finally to Northrop Grumman
4. Only ten units of the AN/AQS-20 were purchased before the system was canceled by the US Navy in 2016
5. In a single reliable reference source used for this entry,^[593] instead of listing the Archerfish AMNS system as AN/ASQ-235, it shows numerous times within the document as AN/AQS-235. But on page 36, section 3, the title refers to the AN/AQS-235 and the next sentence calls it AN/ASQ-235. Considering how many other references (including the Navy factsheet) call it AN/ASQ-235, that is what was used in this Wikipedia list.
6. AN/BQH-7A was a surface ship version of the same bathythermograph
7. Before AN/CRC designated Cryptographic Radios, the first "C" meant "Air Transportable" (ie. Cargo)
