This paper shows that the various problems associated with screening in a modern aircraft manufactured using a large percentage of poorly conducting materials have been faced and in general overcome at minimum cost, volume or weight penalty. The control of the design of the fuselage remains a problem of unknown extent. Airframe designers traditionally considered the dtructural strength of the design along with the aerodynamic performance. It is imperatuve that the electromagnetic performance of the airframe must also now be considered with a similar emphasis. In order to ease the task, a set of design requirements have been written which are essentially a 'recipe book' for airframe designers in order to achieve a good electromagnetic performance. With the greatly increased emphasis on the electromagnetic design of the airframe BAe are confident that it will reap rich rewards in greatly reduced susceptibility of the aircraft ot electromagnetic hazards.
