Mission — Electronic Warfare Advanced Technology
This Program Element (PE) focuses on rapidly maturing and demonstrating advanced Electromagnetic Warfare (EW) capabilities for modern, multi-domain military operations. It matures cutting-edge technologies - including architectures, infrastructure, tools, and techniques - across the spectrum of EW activities: Electronic Attack (EA) to disrupt enemy Command, Control, Computing, Communications, Cyber, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Targeting (C-C5ISR&T) systems and ensure non- kinetic survivability; Electronic Support (ES) for precise detection, identification, and geolocation of enemy RF emissions to enable effective fires; Electronic Protection (EP) to bolster the resiliency and robustness of Army systems against increasingly sophisticated electronic attacks; battle management tools for intelligent planning, targeting, and execution of effects across the entire electromagnetic spectrum; and position, navigation, and timing techniques to enable coordination of electronic attacks. This PE aims to deliver a comprehensive and integrated EW suite that not only ensures our forces maintain a decisive advantage in the contested electromagnetic environment, but also creates novel opportunities for operational advantage, increasing unit survivability, maneuverability, and the effective employment of non-kinetic effects in highly contested and congested spaces.
