The thesis is from 2005. It presupposes that the ECAVs themselves have 360 degrees stealth capability because the scenario is in an area of enclosed radar coverage. By design they will be limited to the size required by their radars. And that, in this scenario, the ECAV's would need to engage all radars in the covered area including NORAD, unlike in offensive ECM scenarios where the outer fringes are probed and stealth is at its highest (generally frontal radar cross section).
