electronic countermeasures

Jamming or otherwise rendering useless an opponent's radar, radio, television, or other forms of telecommunication. This is important in war (domination of the electronic spectrum was a major factor in the Allied victory in the 1991 Gulf War) but jamming of radio and television transmissions also took place during the Cold War, especially by the East bloc.
