Drivers

Increasing Aatention to Electronic Warfare with Cognitive Technology

• The move to cognitive technology is a major development in EW techniques that could completely change the way we combat dynamic threat systems. A new generation of Cognitive EW technology is emerging, marked by initiatives like Behavioural Learning for Adaptive Electronic Warfare (BLADE) and DARPA's Adaptive Radar Countermeasures (ARC).

Usage of Travelling Wave Tube Technology Growing

• Radio frequency (RF) signal amplifiers that use travelling wave tube (TWT) technology are more efficient, especially when it comes to microwave frequencies. TWT transmitters are superior in electronic warfare (EW), radar and communications applications as compared to solid-state ones. These characteristics guarantee uninterrupted and dependable delivery of service even under harsh operational conditions.

Restraints

Issues with Interoperability and Complexity

• Due to their inherent complexity and interoperability problems, electronic warfare systems present serious obstacles. Complicated technological factors make design, creation and application steps for any of these systems hard since they have many features and many ways of developing them. Therefore, for such a level of intricacy to be well managed, availability of relevant information, financial input and joint efforts from different stakeholders are mandatory.

War Dangers are Evolving Quickly

• One of the biggest problems facing nations worldwide is the defence forces' incapacity to counter new threats. Traditional EV systems might find it difficult to keep up with attackers' emerging technology and strategies, which would disclose vulnerabilities. One of the serious challenges awaiting mankind is fast-changing dangers. The new and distinct challenges have come from technological advancement coupled with the changing political landscape; these include drones, hypersonic missiles, and sophisticated cyber-attack strategies.
