MIL-STD-461B Part 1 states that the standards set forth 'may be tailored by the procuring activity'. This simple statement recognizes the unique applications of many equipments and the wide variety of electromagnetic environments (EMEs) in which modern military electronics is required to operate. However, tailoring a military standard such as MIL-STD-461B is sometimes easier said than done. In 1982, the Naval Avionics Center carefully reviewed the requirements of MIL-STD-461B and concurrently studied the EME of todays Navy ships and stations. A detailed review of each applicable section of MIL-STD-461B was made and an extensively tailored specification was formulated. This tailored specification has formed the basis for several EMI specifications for avionics systems including airborne communications, electronic warfare and interior communications systems. This paper reports the product of that tailoring effort. While the focus of this paper is on Parts 1 and 2 of MIL-STD-461B, the concepts are directly applicable to the remaining eight parts.
