  • Electronic countermeasures that alter the electromagnetic, acoustic or other signature(s) of a target thereby altering the tracking and sensing behavior of an incoming threat are designated soft kill measures.
  • the hard kill measures generally refer to measures taken in the so-called "end-game" shortly before a warhead/missile hits its target.
  • the hard kill measure in general physically affects the incoming warhead/missile by means of either blast and/or fragment action.
