Описание: This comprehensive volume on Signals Intelligence (SIGINT) encompasses the various disciplines of wireless interception, cryptanalysis, communications intelligence, electronic intelligence, direction-finding, and traffic analysis. It has become the basis upon which all combat operations are undertaken. It is now widely recognized as an absolutely vital dimension to modern warfare and it has proved to be a vital component in the counter-intelligence war fought between the West and Soviet bloc intelligence agencies. It features around 300 entries on topics ranging from the Falkland Islands to the only British MI5 officer during WWI who spoke Japanese. The author covers all periods from the Boer War up to the latest conflicts, with an article on social media. The dictionary also addresses acronyms, and includes a chronology, several appendixes, and an extensive bibliography. Это и многое другое вы найдете в книге Historical Dictionary of Signals Intelligence. Исторический словарь радиоэлектронной разведки (Nigel West)
