Description (Specifications)

The Broad Spectrum EW Program is designed to act as an automated Electronic Warfare system for automatically disrupting salvos of missiles. The system links into the available sensor systems, continuously scans for missile launches and automatically sends disruptive signals known to interfere with the guidance and targeting systems of all common missiles.

n.b. for an Electronic Warfare Program to work, the computer operating the Electronic Warfare Program must have an open and unrestricted access to the active emissions system able to affect the target missiles' sensors.

History & Background (Dossier)

Software within Charted Space is intentionally built to work under a number of different operating systems, different technology levels of computers, and to be extensively toughened for hard use under vacuum if necessary. [6]

The Software List: The computer software list, available at nearly any software vendor or port, indicates the various programs that are available. It shows space required by a specific program in CPU or storage, its price in MCr, and its title. Also shown is a brief overview of its effects. [7]

Software Authorship: Various requirements exist for individual characters producing existing or new programs. Such a course can save money, but may have some pitfalls. Program generation is explained elsewhere. [8]
