Military electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) is a matter of life

and death as modern war-fighters rely on the safe, secure and

reliable functioning of their devices. Military EMC includes

aspects of electronic interoperability that are seldom or never

considered in the commercial realm. This talk presents

technical details of EMC consideration in tactical and strategic

military operations. The topics discussed include hazards of

electromagnetic radiation to ordnance (HERO), electromagnetic

data security (EMSEC), counter improvised explosive device

(CIED) EMC issues and includes first-hand experiences of work

done in the Afghan theatre.
