I would like to hear the opinion of an air defender as to whether a CAS would actually make their lives safer.
According to the 2016 DSA Annual Assurance Report;

"While military deployment of these systems [CWS] on fast jet aircraft was originally envisaged to mitigate risks during training and non-operational flying, recent reporting has also recognised their positive effect in current operations. In the congested multinational airspace where current operations are underway, coalition aircraft fitted with the system have been able to take action to avoid collisions on several occasions"

DV,

Fair enough, although where “current operations are underway” has not involved any serious high energy manoeuvring, air to air or low level work.

One assumes that you wouldn’t be transmitting on anything unnecessary if actually in a shooting match against someone capable of exploiting and contesting the EM spectrum.
