Chinese ECM, ECCM and Jamming Tech

Hey guys I was wondering how effective are Chinese Electronic Counter Measures, Electronic Counter-Counter Measures and other Jamming technologies?

The answer is... you will never know.

The effectiveness of things such as ECM, Jamming ect.. are difficult to judge.

hopefully its better than the russian products

bigger question,just how effective was Chinese military electronic and solfware?
according to DIIC, Chinese radar jamming is compatible to US vietnam war era.

That's not good if true. But it is a start. During the Vietnam War the US was just developing it's ECM. The US had great difficulty in stopping N. Vietnamese surface to air missiles.(SAM)

Hey, man. Are you kidding us? In the 60s, things like microprocessors don't even exist.

Man pla101prc you love to yank my chain! LOL.. I'm only 56..you should live so long!

Any way in all seriousness the US lost hundreds of aircraft over Vietnam because of the lack of ECM.

None of us really know how far along in development or deployment PLA ECM really is. I suspect the PLA may be further along than we think. In my experience ECM is great as long as it does not interest with the operation of your own electronics.

I find the Vietnam era assessment to be extremely doubtful.

China has had access to decent Russian ESM gear for over a decade now, and every time there is a report about PLA exercises, there is a strong emphasis on the units ability to operate under electronic warfare conditions.

Based on China's electronics industry capabilities as well as the level all their other electronics gear seem to be at, it would need almost a concerted intentional effort to stall their own progress for their electronic warfare capabilities to be only at vietnam era level.

The key elements are will and capability. The PLA clear recognizes the importance of electronic warfare and also have the technical capability and financial and human resources to develop such technologies so there is no reason why they would be lagging so badly in this field compared to the progress they have been able to achieve in all others over the years.
