AIR-TO-AIR ANTI-RADIATION MISSILE (ARM) ELECTRONIC COUNTER-COUNTERMEASURE (ECCM)

THIS PROGRAM PROVIDES AN APPROACH TO IDENTIFY AND EVALUATE ANTI-RADIATION MISSILE (ARM) ELECTRONIC COUNTER-COUNTERMEASURE (ECCM) TECHNIQUES FOR DEVELOPMENTAL AND PLANNED AIR FORCE RADARS TO COUNTER CURRENT AND ADVANCED HOSITLE ARMS. THE APPROACH DETERMINE THE VULNERABILITY OF AIR FORCE AIRBORNE RADARS TO PROJECTED THREATE ARMS, DEVELOPS AND EVALUATES RADAR ARM ECCM AND TACTICAL ARM COUNTERMEASURE,AND IDENTIFIES ADVANCED RADAR AND SENSOR APPROACHES TO MINIMIZE THE ARM'S EFFECTIVENESS. THE TECHNICAL APPROACH CONSTISTS OF PERFORMING HOSTILE ARM AND CANDIDATE AIR FORCE AIRBONRE RADAR CHARACTERIZATION AND RADAR VULNERABILITY ANALYSIS TO IDENTIFY ARM ECCM REQUIREMENTS ANDADVANCED RADAR AND SENSOR APPORACHES TO COUNTER PROJECTED ARM THREATES. TRADE OFF ANALYSES WILL BE PERFORMED TO DETERMINE THE EFFECTIVENESS OF CANDIDATE ARM ECCM WHICH CAN BE IMPLEMENTED WITHING THE RADAR'S HARDWARE ADN SOFTWARE CONFIGURATION. RECOMMENDED ARM ECCM FOR AIR FORCE AIRBORNE RADARS WILL BE IDENTIFIED, AND DESIGNS FOR ADVANCED RADAR TECHNIQUES AND TACTICS TO NEUTRALIZE THE PROJECTED AND ADVANCED ARMS WILL BE DEVELOPED.
