Such system features include those design, performance, and operational capabilities used to limit or avoid the hostile environment, architectures that minimize the impact of localized damage to the larger wartime 1 S9 M1 X; C& Vmission, as well as physical hardening to environment levels, which cannot be mitigated otherwise. Survivability characteristics include proliferation, redundancy, avoidance, reconstitution, deception, and hardening. NUDET Nuclear Detonation.
