1-9. Electronic attack is a division of electronic warfare involving the use of electromagnetic energy,
directed energy, or antiradiation weapons to attack personnel, facilities, or equipment with the intent of
degrading, neutralizing, or destroying enemy combat capability and is considered a form of fires (JP 3-
13.1). Electronic attack includes—
z Actions taken to prevent or reduce an enemy’s effective use of the electromagnetic spectrum,
such as jamming and electromagnetic deception.
z Employment of weapons that use either electromagnetic or directed energy as their primary
destructive mechanism (lasers, radio frequency weapons, particle beams).
z Offensive and defensive activities including countermeasures.
1-10. Common types of electronic attack include spot, barrage, and sweep electromagnetic jamming.
Electronic attack actions also include various electromagnetic deception techniques such as false target or
duplicate target generation. (See paragraphs 1-23 to 1-31 for further discussion of electronic attack
activities.)
1-11. Directed energy is an umbrella term covering technologies that relate to the production of a beam of
concentrated electromagnetic energy or atomic or subatomic particles (JP 1-02). A directed-energy weapon
uses directed energy primarily as a direct means to damage or destroy an enemy’s equipment, facilities, and
personnel. In addition to destructive effects, directed-energy weapon systems support area denial and
crowd control. (See appendix A for more information on directed energy.)
1-12. Examples of offensive electronic attack include—
z Jamming enemy radar or electronic command and control systems.
z Using antiradiation missiles to suppress enemy air defenses (antiradiation weapons use radiated
energy emitted from the target as their mechanism for guidance onto targeted emitters).
z Using electronic deception techniques to confuse enemy intelligence, surveillance, and
reconnaissance systems.
z Using directed-energy weapons to disable an enemy’s equipment or capability.
El meollo del asunto aqui es que una aeronave EW tenga la capacidad de hacer eso que dices de forma stand-off, es decir mediante metodos de ataque electronico, entonces si un CN-235 quisiera usar equipos para su defensa electronica contra dispositivos IR puede hacerlo en forma de un DIRCM o un LAIRCM que es un dispositivo de energia dirijida por ejemplo, pero lo que no puede hacer (ya que no lo has demostrado) es proteger con este tipo de sistemas otra aeronave alejada de ella (como tu caso del UAV) de este tipo de amenazas y como estas aeronaves no son escort jammers, entonces no tienen otra opcion que hacer stand-off jamming para ese tipo de cometidos y ahi es donde radica el problema.
ltcol. solo escribió:ojo lasers y broad band jammers ...aquí no hablan de flares !!! el medio obvio. IR puede ser bloqueada por medios electrónicos. MI PUNTO, EXACTAMENTE.
Tu punto esta errado como por variar, pero cito:
The LAIRCM mechanism is similar to the lamp-based DIRCM, except that a laser, rather than a lamp, jams the incoming missile.
The LAIRCM system weighs 350 pounds and can be installed in less than a week, Del Boca said at a news conference during the 2003 Paris Air Show. The price for each system is $2 million, assuming an order of 300 aircraft. With a 1,000 aircraft order, the price would drop to $1 million.
The LAIRCM technology would require Federal Aviation Administration approval before it can be installed on any civilian airliner. The certification process would take at least nine months, said Del Boca.
The laser is more effective than lamp-based systems or broadband jammers, he explained, because it can be used in different frequencies, against older and newer missiles.

Resulta que son dispositivos que solo funcionan como autodefensa para la aeronave que los porta (stand in jamming) y no como metodos stand-off jamming.
