What is a common challenge faced by fire control technicians during combat?

Fire control technicians often face the challenge of maintaining system functionality despite electronic interference. In a combat environment, various forms of electronic warfare can disrupt the operation of systems that are crucial for targeting and fire control. This interference can come from enemy actions aimed at jamming radar signals or from various forms of electronic emissions on the battlefield that can affect the accuracy and reliability of fire control systems. Successfully navigating and overcoming these electronic challenges is vital for ensuring that the sensors and weapon systems remain operational, allowing for effective targeting and engagement of enemy forces. This aspect of fire control operations underscores the need for technicians to be adept at troubleshooting and resilience in the face of such adversities.
