Chaff consists of aluminised glass fibre filaments which act as half wave
dipoles and can thus reflect radio frequency electromagnetic energy.
A chaff cartridge is an individual package of chaff. The cartridge may
contain several different cut lengths of chaff to optimise response over the
required frequency band.

The logic supply is a 28V dc supply used to power the Vicon 78 system with
the exception of the firing circuits. This supply is not broken by the aircraft's
weight-off-wheels switch. The term 'powered up' refers to the situation that
normally exists directly after application of this supply.
