The document summarizes the capabilities of the US Strategic Command Joint Electronic Warfare Center EM OPFOR. It replicates electromagnetic environments to train DoD/USG organizations. It leverages spectrum, cyber, and space capabilities for integrated effects. The EM OPFOR provides a robust, scalable real-world target set using commercial off-the-shelf equipment for operators/systems to train against. It supports tactics, techniques and procedures development for both ground and air electronic warfare and information operations asset integration.
