  directed energy
  An umbrella term covering technologies that relate to the production of a beam of concentrated
  electromagnetic energy or atomic or subatomic particles. Also called DE. (JP 3-85)
  directed-energy warfare
  Military actions involving the use of directed-energy weapons, devices, and countermeasures. Also
  called DEW. (JP 3-85)
  directed-energy weapon
  A weapon or system that uses directed energy to incapacitate, damage, or destroy enemy equipment,
  facilities, and/or personnel. (JP 3-85)
  direction finding
  A procedure for obtaining bearings of radio frequency emitters by using a highly directional antenna
  and a display unit on an intercept receiver or ancillary equipment. Also called DF. (JP 3-85)
  dynamic targeting
  Targeting that prosecutes targets identified too late or not selected for action in time to be included in
  deliberate targeting. (JP 3-60)
  electromagnetic attack
  Division of electromagnetic 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. Also called EA.
  (JP 3-85)
  electromagnetic compatibility
  The ability of systems, equipment, and devices that use the electromagnetic spectrum to operate in
  their intended environments without causing or suffering unacceptable or unintentional degradation
  because of electromagnetic radiation or response. Also called EMC. (JP 3-85)
  electromagnetic hardening
  Actions taken to protect personnel, facilities, and/or equipment by blanking, filtering, attenuating,
  grounding, bonding, and/or shielding against undesirable effects of electromagnetic energy. (JP 3-85)
  electromagnetic masking
  The controlled radiation of electromagnetic energy on friendly frequencies in a manner to protect the
  emissions of friendly communications and electronic systems against enemy electromagnetic support
  measures/signals intelligence without significantly degrading the operation of friendly systems. (JP 3-
  85)
  electromagnetic intrusion
  The intentional insertion of electromagnetic energy into transmission paths in any manner. The
  objective of electromagnetic intrusion is to deceive threat operators or cause confusion. (JP 3-85)
  electromagnetic jamming
  The deliberate radiation, reradiation, or reflection of electromagnetic energy for the purpose of
  preventing or reducing an enemy’s effective use of the electromagnetic spectrum, and with the intent
  of degrading or neutralizing the enemy’s combat capability. (JP 3-85)
  electromagnetic probing
  The intentional radiation designed to be introduced into the devices or systems of adversaries to learn
  the functions and operational capabilities of the devices or systems. (JP 3-85)
  electromagnetic protection
  Division of electromagnetic warfare involving actions taken to protect personnel, facilities, and
  equipment from any effects of friendly or enemy use of the electromagnetic spectrum that degrade,
  neutralize, or destroy friendly combat capability. Also called EP. (JP 3-85)
