[EVE] An Introduction to EWAR - 1. ECM Jamming 

This video is somewhat old, so there's been one major change to ECM since I uploaded this. As of October 2018, victims of ECM jamming can still targetlock any and all entities that are successfully applying jams on the victim. The victim simply can't targetlcok anyone /else/.

I'm sorry, I didn't notice this question until now. If it's a player ship, then Show Info on the ship type. Amongst the Attributes, you should be able to find the sensor type. For NPCs, I forget the answer; inquire in the in-game chat channel "EVE University".

@@SeamusDonohueEVEOnline lol thanks but I stopped playing eve a few months back. Coincidentally I just downloaded eve echoes and was going to have a look at it.

I haven't been playing regularly since 2018, so my knowledge might be out-of-date. However, when last I checked, activating any form of hostile EWAR (ECM jamming, target painting, et cetera) should behave identically to firing a turret or missile (as far as the safety settings are concerned).

Off the top of my head, I don't know if Burst Jamming asteroids will trigger a CONCORD response. You can try testing this on the Singularity Test Server. With other player's mining drones in High Security space, it depends. If those other players are in the same corporation as you AND your corporation allows Friendly Fire, then Burst Jamming your corpmates and/or their drones is fine. If those players are NOT in your corporation OR your corporation does NOT allow Friendly Fire, then Burst Jamming will trigger a CONCORD response. CONCORD doesn't care if you're in a fleet with whoever you're attacking, CONCORD only cares if you're in the same corporation as them (with Friendly Fire allowed by the CEO) or if you're formally at war with whoever you're attacking. Your drones are your property. Attacking your own drones will never trigger a CONCORD response.

@@SeamusDonohueEVEOnline ok thanks

Provides a *basic* jammer strength (protection???), but *not* as much as regular jammers (AKA *Defensive* Module). Best used in lowsec/nullsec (no module restrictions).

[I approved someone else's "Likely Spam" reply (it wasn't spam, but I did believe it was incorrect) and was going to counter-reply to it, but I'm not sure where that comment went, now. it seems to have disappeared.] Burst ECMs can be used offensively in fleet versus fleet fights. Certain assistive modules (Remote Armor Repair, Remote Shield Boosters, Remote Capacitor Transmitters, and so on) require targetlocks. So, firing off Burst ECMs in the middle of the enemy fleet can disrupt these assistive effects, allowing your fleet to more easily enemy ships. To make a World of Warcraft analogy, you're area-of-effect stunning the enemy healers in a big PvP fight.

You can see that this is gaming: 1) Thumbnail 2) Title (EVE) 3) Title again, literally says EWAR
