This paper provides an overview of an approach that may be used to provide a realistic assessment of the vulnerability of an electronically guided weapon system to the electromagnetic environment, both friendly and hostile, that may be encountered in the performance of various intended missions. An overall approach to the vulnerability assessment problem is presented. The approach described is based on forecasts of the electromagnetic environment, measurements of the susceptibility of weapon systems to electromagnetic radiation, and weapon systems flight simulation.
