It's just occurred to me that the topics of ECM and ECCM have not been raised previously. As the new engine incorporates sensor modelling, how will ECM be handled?
By 1946, plans for the SCR-270 radar set were published into the public domain as it was considered already obsolete. This indicates the speed with which ECCM had progressed during the war. The early Wurzburg sets were totally blinded by spot jamming but modifications like Wurzlaus and Taunen gave it some ability to operate in spite of noise interference.
By 1955, the array of ECCM methods was huge and airborne ECM sets featuring parabolic antennae used a variety of sophisticated jamming and spoofing techniques. Modelling each system at the circuit level clearly isn't realistic but hopefully some generic ECM and ECCM capabilities can be abstracted?
Maybe we could be told a few details of how the engine handles these things?
Thanks,
