Some quick questions on EW from a newbie... 
1. When you use ECM does the jamming benefit all allied ships or just yours (meaning the enemy cannot target friendly allied ships)?
2. Does ECM jam all enemy ships or does it jam only targetted enemy ships?
3. With ECCM the person equiped with ECCM only get the benefit unless you use a ECCM projector. Is this correct?
Thanks in advance! |

1. it affects the targeted ship, if you jam him successfully then he can not target at all, not you, not anyone.
2. ECM jams just the targeted ship, unless you use an ECM burst, which affects all ships w/in its range but only at strength 8 so only works on frigs that don't have backups.
3. Correct

1. yes, when a ship is jammed it is unable to target lock any ship, and can rely on auto-attacking modules only for damage (drones, fof missles)
2.only targetted enemy ship is jammed, see "ecm burst" for blanket sensor jamming, they jam anything within range (5km) for 8, no stacking, and no target lock needed.
3.eccm is a module to backup your own ship, ew pilots know the jam strengths of the ship they are after, and backups are the only way to fight jamming, by raising your sensor strength more than an ew pilot can lower it. the projectors are used to lock an allied ship and boost his sensor strength, if he is being jammed from an enemy source, and require a target lock to activate on an ally.
hope this is helpful.

correct and it also only breaks a lock so you can instantly relock a target untill the next cycle of the ecm burst ( around every 20 secs)
