Försvarsmaktens telekrigsstödenhet (TKSE) har uppgiften att försörja Försvarsmaktens Varning- och motverkanssystem (VMS) med telekrigsbibliotek. Telekrigsbibliotek krävs för att VMS, skall fungera. Med ett gemensamt verktyg för flera VMS, kan den militära nyttan höjas. Genom att möjliggöra att flera system kan samverka vid produktionen, kan flera svaga hypoteser kan blir starkare. Dock kommer detta inte att vara enkelt på grund av den finansiering modell som Försvarsmakten arbetar med. Den som ansvarar för plattformutrustning och producerande enhet har inte alltid möjlighet att nå den optimala lösningen på grund av andra hänsynstaganden.
