The making of UDFs (user data files), which are loaded into electronic warfare devices on tactical aircraft, is considered a simple case of a flexible manufacturing system. The UDFG (user data file generator) for the ASPJ (airborne self-protection jammer) consists of a set of database and text editing routines to incorporate entries concerning threat data, countermeasures options, and aircraft-dependent information in a user-friendly manner and rapidly merge the inputs into machine-loadable files. Expert system capabilities allow system analysts to tailor search sector strategy for the set of threats involved. Menu selection of threats from a library of data stored in the UDFG's database and tailoring of search sectors allows for an astronomical variety of scenarios to be specified with optimization of the jammer's response to the set of threats included. Whenever running the UDFG, designers are able to select and modify the electronic countermeasures programs to be used against the set of threats, taking advantage of changes in the demand for jamming resources due to changes in the set of threats.<>
