That little minuscule thing we have in Oolite will probably fit in as an Electronic Counter Measure, but that depends on how it works.

Well, by name it is ECM.

There are a few things in that manual which are hard to reconcile with what happens in-game, though. For example, it's off by quite some way on the mix of human and alien worlds.
