radar jamming

Electronic detection blocking

Radar jamming is the deliberate transmission of radio signals to interfere with enemy radar systems, degrading their ability to detect aircraft, ships, or missiles.

Electronic warfare aircraft often carry jamming equipment to protect strike packages.

The technique ranges from flooding receivers with noise to sophisticated deception that creates false targets: The bombers approached under cover of radar jamming.
