Effective employment of both ECM and ECCM depends on the ability of (a) ELINT to determine the capabilities of the radars of potential hostile forces, (b) the ESM system to determine the electronic order of battle, and (c) the ability of the RWRs in the individual aircraft to detect the RF emissions of any enemy system that threatens the aircraft, identify the sources of the emissions, and determine optimum responses.
