Electronic warfare, including standoff jamming, chaff corridors, and self-protection ECM pods,War Over Vietnam is a tactical air warfare simulation that features an extremely detailed and accurate depiction of the operational air war over the expansive Southeast Asia theater of operations. Electronic warfare, including standoff jamming, chaff corridors, and self-protection ECM pods, helps strike aircraft penetrate successfully to their targets in the thick of the dense and lethal North Vietnamese air defenses. A full suite of sensors is modeled, from ground controlled intercept and airborne warning and control radars down to SAM and AAA target-tracking radars.
