THE NEW FACE OF AIR ORIENTED TERRORISM AND AIR DEFENCE SYSTEMS VULNERABILITIES

Summary/Abstract: The Air Defence System’s efficient and effective reaction to the threat of air oriented terrorism depends on the existence of realistic plans for the coordination of efforts and for the command-control of forces involved, starting from the identification phase of the aircraft until the final resolution of an air traffic incident. At the Prague summit, NATO defined the “RENEGADE” threat as the use of hijacked civilian aircraft as weapons to commit a terrorist attack. The Alliance developed the concept of “RENEGADE” and established the responsibilities of all structures involved in counteracting this threat and the necessary measures to be implemented including standing operating procedures within the NATO Integrated Air Defence System – NATINADS.
