Communications links are vulnerable to electronic countermeasures when a combination of the technical limitations of the communications equipment, the capability of an enemy to exploit those limitations, and the electrical coupling of the jammer with the targeted communications link exist simultaneously. The technical limitations of a communications link can lead to actual vulnerability only if the link receivers are physically exposed to a potential threat and if the system is utilized in a manner such that degraded communications performance could affect mission success. Techniques to evaluate the accessibility of modern military airborne receivers to tactical jammers in typical scenarios are described in this paper. These analysis techniques relate signal detection capabilities of various equipment to system performance, with mission profile as an independent variable. They also consider other special requirements and problems encountered with airborne links.
