  electromagnetic pulse
  A strong burst of electromagnetic radiation caused by a nuclear explosion, energy weapon, or by
  natural phenomenon, that may couple with electrical or electronic systems to produce damaging
  current and voltage surges. (JP 3-85)
  electromagnetic reconnaissance
  The detection, location, identification, and evaluation of foreign electromagnetic radiations. (JP 3-85)
  electromagnetic security
  The protection resulting from all measures designed to deny unauthorized persons information of value
  that might be derived from their interception and study of noncommunications electromagnetic
  radiations (e.g., radar). (JP 3-85)
  electromagnetic spectrum superiority
  That degree of control in the electromagnetic spectrum that permits the conduct of operations at a
  given time and place without prohibitive interference, while affecting the threat’s ability to do the
  same. (JP 3-85)
  electromagnetic support
  Division of electromagnetic warfare involving actions tasked by, or under the direct control of, an
  operational commander to search for, intercept, identify, and locate or localize sources of intentional
  and unintentional radiated electromagnetic energy for immediate threat recognition, targeting,
  planning, and conduct of future operations. Also called ES. (JP 3-85)
  electromagnetic vulnerability
  The characteristics of a system that cause it to suffer a definite degradation (incapability to perform the
  designated mission) as a result of having been subjected to a certain level of electromagnetic
  environmental effects. (JP 3-85)
  electromagnetic warfare
  Military action involving the use of electromagnetic and directed energy to control the electromagnetic
  spectrum or to attack the enemy. Also called EW. (JP 3-85)
  electromagnetic warfare reprogramming
  The deliberate alteration or modification of electromagnetic warfare or target sensing systems, or the
  tactics and procedures that employ them, in response to validated changes in equipment, tactics, or the
  electromagnetic environment. (JP 3-85)
  enemy
  An enemy is a party identified as hostile against which the use of force is authorized. (ADP 3-0)
  essential task
  A specified or implied task that must be executed to accomplish the mission. (FM 6-0)
  execution
  The act of putting a plan into action by applying combat power to accomplish the mission and
  adjusting operations based on changes in the situation. (ADP 5-0)
  hazard
  A condition with the potential to cause injury, illness, or death of personnel, damage to or loss of
  equipment or property, or mission degradation. (JP 3-33)
  high-payoff target
  A target whose loss to the enemy will significantly contribute to the success of the friendly course of
  action. Also called HPT. (JP 3-60)
  high-value target
  A target the enemy commander requires for the successful completion of the mission. (JP 3-60)
