FM 3-36, ARMY FIELD MANUAL 3-36, ELECTRONIC WARFARE (09-NOV-2012)
FM 3-36, ARMY FIELD MANUAL 3-36, ELECTRONIC WARFARE (09-NOV-2012)., Field Manual (FM) 3-36 provides Army doctrine for electronic warfare (EW) planning, preparation,
execution, and assessment in support of unified land operations. Users of FM 3-36 must be familiar with
unified land operations doctrine established in Army Doctrine Publication (ADP) 3-0 (2011), the operations
process established in ADP 5-0 (2012), and EW doctrine described in Joint Publication (JP) 3-13.1 (2012).
This manual is not intended to be a major departure from the 2009 version. It aligns Army EW doctrine
with ADP 3-0 and addresses numerous administrative and organizational changes since 2009.
The principle audience for FM 3-36 is Army commanders
and staffs at all echelons. This FM serves as an
authoritative reference for personnel who—
* Develop doctrine (fundamental principles and tactics, techniques, and procedures), materiel, and
force structure.
* Develop institutional and unit training.
* Develop standard operating procedures for unit operations.
* Plan, prepare, execute, and assess EW.
Commanders, staffs, and subordinates ensure their decisions and actions comply
with applicable U.S.,
international, and, in some cases, host-nation laws
and regulations. Commanders at all levels ensure their
Soldiers operate in accordance with the law of war and the rules of engagement (see FM 27-10)
