Which option lists the Electronic Warfare capabilities EA, ES, and EP that can be deployed from ground, air, and sea?

• A. Electronic Attack, Electronic Defense, Electronic Protection
• B. Electronic Surveillance, Electronic Countermeasures, Electronic Data
• C. Electronic Attack, Electronic Support, Electronic Protection
• D. Electronic Attack, Electronic Support, Electronic Countermeasures

Answer: (C)

In Electronic Warfare, the three main capability areas are Electronic Attack, Electronic Support, and Electronic Protection. Electronic Attack is about actively denying or degrading the enemy’s use of the electromagnetic spectrum through jamming, spoofing, or deception. Electronic Support involves collecting signals intelligence and other electromagnetic information to understand the environment, cue defenses, and guide operations. Electronic Protection focuses on preserving our own use of the spectrum by hardening systems, employing anti-jamming techniques, and using frequency agility to maintain operations in contested environments. These three functions can be delivered from ground, air, or sea platforms, making them the standard cross-domain EW capabilities. The other options mix terms that aren’t part of the same EW triad (for example, Electronic Defense or Electronic Countermeasures) or include items like Surveillance or Data that aren’t the named EW capability areas. That’s why Electronic Attack, Electronic Support, and Electronic Protection is the correct combination.
