“不死鸟”导弹及其AWG-9火控雷达是专为F-14战斗机设计的。AWG-9不同于一般的舰载雷达,它在搜索时,能跟踪24个目标,同时向6个目标导引多枚导弹。因此,美国海军正在研究用它作航空母舰防御飞航式导弹饱和攻击的可能性。“不死鸟”用作舰对空导弹不同于它作为空对空导弹,它作为舰对空导弹,要求反应快,射程短,也就是说,在目标近至大约32公里时 “Phoenix” missiles and their AWG-9 fire control radar is designed for the F-14 fighter. AWG-9 is different from the average carrier-based radar, it can track 24 targets in search, while guiding multiple missiles to 6 targets. As a result, the U.S. Navy is studying the possibility of using it as a satur- ing attack on an aircraft carrier defense missile. As a surface-to-air missile, “Phoenix” is used as a ship-to-air missile as a surface-to-air missile. It requires fast response and short range, that is, as the target approaches approximately 32 km
