How might non-specialized Electronic warfare (EW) be used to obtain mission success
How might non-specialised Electronic Warfare (EW) be used to obtain mission success in an Article 5 scenario for your speciality? What types of non-specialised EW are appropriate for your speciality?
We will explore key innovation tools and methodologies, using the challenge of integrating non-specialised EW for mission success in an Article 5 scenario as a practical application. This session will provide hands-on exercises, allowing you to master these tools and immediately apply them to enhance operational effectiveness, ultimately improving your speciality’s contribution to high-stakes missions.
Why is Integrating non-specialised EW Crucial?
- Enhanced Operational Advantage: Discover unexpected ways to use common or non-dedicated equipment to gain a tactical edge in contested environments.
- Increased Force Protection: Learn how readily available tools can contribute to sensing, disruption, and deception, safeguarding personnel and assets.
- Resourcefulness in Action: Maximise the impact of existing resources and minimise reliance on complex, specialised, or scarce EW systems.
- Mission Adaptability: Develop scalable and agile concepts that allow your speciality to adapt to evolving threats and mission parameters quickly.
This training will be held in French, and support in Dutch and English will be available.
More information about the other upcoming trainings will follow soon. These will take place in the beginning of 2026.
