* It is a countermeasure against [[Sensor]]s.
 
* It is a type of [[Ship Equipment]]
 
 
 
== Description / Specifications ==
 
An electromagnetic masking package reduces a [[ship]]s electromagnetic emissions and its sensor signature in all bands, thus making it harder to detect using both active and passive sensors. The EMM package is applied across the whole of the [[ship]]s [[hull]] and may include features such as camouflage patterns (to counter optical sensors), angled surfaces, energy absorbent materials, prismatic surfaces, masks and shielding, and cooling systems.
 
* It is a passive system.
 
 
 
== History & Background / Dossier ==
 
EMM is an evolutionary design and is available from very early tech levels. Aspects of EMM are added to the package as new designs of sensor become available.
