The EMS is a maneuvering space and physical environment that exists regardless of human interaction. (paragraph 1)
Successful execution of EMSO requires integrated and synchronized execution of EW (electromagnetic attack, electromagnetic protection, and electromagnetic support), space operations, signals intelligence, electromagnetic battle management, spectrum management, and additional functions for controlling the EMS throughout the air, land, maritime, cyberspace, and space warfighting domains. (paragraph 2)
EMSO, employed appropriately, enables the attainment of EMS superiority. (paragraph 1)
Integrate EMS superiority concepts into the USAF, USSF, and joint military strategy, plans, doctrine, operations, exercises, system architectures, electromagnetic spectrumdependent (S-D) systems’ development, and functional and professional military and civilian training and education so DAF personnel can use electromagnetic S-D systems as intended in any relevant electromagnetic environments. (paragraph 2)
