ECM is also unique in being the only type of EWAR with a low-slot assistance module, the Signal Distortion Amplifier. Signal distortion amplifiers are passive modules that provide a percentage increase to the jam strength and ECM range of your ECM modules.

Damps can also be assisted by a fleet booster with the Information Command Burst - Electronic Superiority Charge (increases EWAR range and strength).

=== Countering Damps: Sensor Boosters ===
=== Countering Remote Sensor Dampening ===


Like ECM, remote sensor dampening is countered by Sensor Boosters, Remote Sensor Boosters, and Signal Amplifiers. All of these modules provide a bonus to targeting range and scan resolution, along with the bonuses described above to sensor strength. Sensor boosters and remote sensor boosters—active, mid-slot modules—can be fitted with either a Targeting Range Script or a Scan Resolution Script that doubles either of those stats at the expense of the other (and also at the expense of the sensor strength effect). Signal amplifiers are passive, low-slot modules that cannot be scripted.

There are no modules or rigs that decrease signature radius, so there is no direct counter to the effects of a target painter module.
