- Wassenaar Arrangement – Munitions List – WA-LIST (25) 1
a. Electronic equipment specially designed for military use and specially designed components therefor;
Note ML11.a. includes:
a. Electronic countermeasure and electronic counter-countermeasure equipment (i.e., equipment designed to introduce extraneous or erroneous signals into radar or radio communication receivers or otherwise hinder the reception, operation or effectiveness of adversary electronic receivers including their countermeasure equipment), including jamming and counter-jamming equipment;
b. Frequency agile tubes;
c. Electronic systems or equipment, designed either for surveillance and monitoring of the electromagnetic spectrum for military intelligence or security purposes or for counteracting such surveillance and monitoring;
d. Underwater countermeasures, including acoustic and magnetic jamming and decoy, equipment designed to introduce extraneous or erroneous signals into sonar receivers;
e. Data processing security equipment, data security equipment and transmission and signalling line security equipment, using cryptographic functionality;
f. Identification, authentification and keyloader equipment and key management, manufacturing and distribution equipment;
g. Guidance and navigation equipment;
h. Digital troposcatter-radio communications transmission equipment;
i. Digital demodulators specially designed for signals intelligence;
j. 'Automated Command and Control Systems'.
Technical Note
For the purposes of ML11.a. Note j., 'Automated Command and Control Systems' are electronic systems, through which information essential to the effective operation of the grouping, major formation, tactical formation, unit, ship, subunit or weapons under command is entered, processed and transmitted. This is achieved by the use of computer and other specialised hardware designed to support the functions of a military command and control organisation. The main functions of an automated command and control system are: the efficient automated collection, accumulation, storage and processing of information; the display of the situation and the circumstances affecting the preparation and conduct of combat operations; operational and tactical calculations for the allocation of resources among force groupings or elements of the operational order of battle or battle deployment according to the mission or stage of the operation; the preparation of data for appreciation of the situation and decision-making at any point during operation or battle; computer simulation of operations.
N.B. For "software" associated with military "Software" Defined Radio (SDR), see ML21.
b. Jamming equipment designed or modified to hinder the reception, operation or effectiveness of positioning, navigation or timing services provided by "satellite navigation systems", and specially designed components therefor;
c. "Spacecraft" specially designed or modified for military use, and "spacecraft" components specially designed for military use.
