Report -- Electronic Warfare: The Changing Face Of Combat

Electronic Warfare (EW) is the struggle for control of the electromagnetic spectrum — to assure that friendly forces can use the spectrum to their full potential in wartime, while denying that use to enemies. U.S. military success depends on unfettered access to the spectrum to enable electronic equipment such as radars, communication links, computer networks, and sensors to work. The purpose of this report is to discuss the challenges and opportunities facing electronic warfare today and recommend steps to secure a durable and viable electronic warfare capability for the future.
