CCF-2 Flashcards
(77 cards)
Inexpensive and effective, _______ is the most widely used mechanical jamming device.
Chaff
Most effective electronic protection against chaff?
True Doppler processing at Med or High pulse repetition frequency (PRF)
Dipole elements designed to match the half wavelength of the victim radar?
Chaff
___________represents the number of complete cycles of an electromagnetic wave in a specified amount of time.
Frequency
_________________________________ has proven to be the best electronic protection to combat barrage jamming.
Pulse compression and increased power
Electronic protection for spot jamming is _______________.
frequency agility
The best electronic protection for sweep jamming is ___________________________.
patience/persistence or operator
The first line, and most common form, of electronic protection against jamming is __________.
Brevity
Targets need to be separated in range laterally by ___ / ___ in both pulse and beam width to ensure detection of both targets.
half / half
The VHF AM band is mostly used by _________________.
Civil aviation
__________radios are used for amateur communications, public service, and maritime operations.
High Frequency (HF)
___________________ has an electric field that combines vertical and horizontal fields resulting in a twist like corkscrew; penetrates all but the heaviest precipitation.
Circular Polarity
___________________has an electric field perpendicular to the horizon. With clutter rejection it is the favorite of contemporary radar engineers. It is often used due to its inherent rejection of clutter.
Vertical Polarity
___________________has an electric field parallel to the horizon and is the most sensitive polarity for detect conventional aircraft.
Horizontal Polarity
_________ jamming exposes its jamming signal back and forth through a number of frequencies.
Sweep
_________ jamming broadcasts radio noise simultaneously on every frequency of interest.
Barrage
________ jamming concentrates all of its power on a single victim frequency
Spot
_______________ procedures are pre-briefed steps operators will take to overcome communication jamming.
Chettermark
T/F Repeater jammers are only deceptive in range
False
Radar reflected from an object receding from the Doppler radar will be at a slightly ______________.
lower frequency
First generation fighter aircraft
Airborne Intercept (AI)
Combined AI and EW radars
Ground Controlled Intercept (GCI)
Elevated surveillance position
Airborne Early Warning (AEW)
Ground Controlled Intercepts and Airborne Early Warning radars with fan-shaped beams have to estimate target height where errors of up to _______ feet are not uncommon.
