WARFARE
By
ADITYA PV
INTRODUCTION
Action involving use of the electromagnetic
spectrum
Three main divisions :
Electronic Attack (EA)
Electronic Protection (EP)
Electronic Warfare Support (ES)
Modifiers
Radar-absorbing materials (RAM)
Physical Destruction
NON-DESTRUCTIVE EA
DENIAL:
NOISE JAMMING
Deliberate impairing of enemys
devices radiation, re-radiation, or
reflection of electromagnetic energy
TGT Freq
True Noise
Ideal
Jammer
Actual Spot
Jammer
CHAFF CORRIDORS
FLARES (ACTIVE)
CHAFF FALSE
TARGETS
MULTIPLE FALSE
TARGETS Real Target
STROBES
DECOYS
Target Return
Velocity Gate
Gate Pull-Off
DESTRUCTIVE EA
Anti-Radiation Missiles
SLAM
HARM
Sidewinder
Directed Energy
SLAMER
(Stand-off Land Attack MissileExpanded Response)
HARM
(HIGH-SPEED ANTI RADIATION MISSILE)
SIDEWINGER
ELECTRONIC PROTECTION
(EP)
Protection of friendly combat
capability against undesirable effect of
friendly or enemy employed EW
Types
Passive EW
Active EW
EP
Three ways to defend from enemy
EW
Modify radar
o Make it more complex
o Make it harder to jam
Modify the Medium
o Chaff
o Torch
Modify the platform
EP FACTORS
BURNTHROUGH:
Increase signal strength to
overpower jammer noise (ECCM)
Emission Control (EMCON)
Alpha
Bravo
Charlie
Delta
Operator Recognition Training
JAMMING EFFECTIVENESS
Match the victim radars RF
Be continuous
Have sufficient power
METHODS TO DEFEAT
DIRECT THREAT JAMMING
