1/9
As the war continues, the Electronic Order of Battle (EOB) is being closely monitored. Since Russia’s invasion began in February 2022, the control and manipulation of the #radio #spectrum has evolved to become a pivotal part of the conflict. #UkraineWar #ElectronicWarfare 2/9
Early in the conflict, Russia initially dominated the EW landscape, using sophisticated systems to jam Ukrainian communications and radar. However, Ukraine’s resilience and adaptation to new problems have led to significant shifts in the current power dynamic. #TechInWar 3/9
🇺🇦 has used Western support to enhance its EW capabilities. Introducing advanced jamming systems & encryption has bolstered their ability to secure communications & counteract #Russian jamming efforts. This has been visibly effective on the battlefield. #Innovation #Defense 4/9
It's not just Western systems helping though. Like many other aspects of the war, Ukrainian tech development has also allowed the development & production of indigenous systems to help address the shortfall of EW, drone defence & other critical systems for the frontline. 5/9
Controlling access to the radio spectrum has proven to be an effective force multiplier. Both sides use EW to disrupt C & C, target enemy positions & protect their assets. The evolving tactics reflect the growing importance of the digital front in modern warfare. #Warfare 6/9
New reports also indicate a surge in the use of various types of drone-based EW systems. These systems effectively disrupt enemy ops, gather intel and extend #FPV drone range. The ongoing arms race in EW tech highlights its strategic significance. #Drones 7/9
In the future, we should see even more sophisticated EW tactics and tech come to life. The lessons learned in Ukraine will shape future military strategies and underscore the growing importance of electronic dominance in modern conflicts. #FutureWarfare #MilitaryTech 8/9
Don't forget you can support 🇺🇦 by donating to humanitarian causes like #demining that help ease the civilian price of war.
You can also donate to military projects, or even put your name on an #Artillery Shell.
