Abstract:

Electronic Warfare EW Test and Evaluation TE is a complex and expensive undertaking. Practitioners must understand the subject matter to efficiently apply available test resources and cost effectively meet their test objectives. This revised EW TE handbook provides an overview of various types of EW systems and basic test methodologies. It also describes various test resources and discusses their associated strengths and limitations. Some typical problems are identified and discussed in a Learning from Experience section. A brief overview of some test resources and facilities across NATO and Partnership for Peace countries are provided along with points of contact to aid potential customers.
