Electronic Warfare Systems Engineering Training by Tonex
Electronic Warfare Systems Engineering Training by Tonex is a 2-day professional course designed for engineers, technical leaders, acquisition teams, and program managers involved in developing, evaluating, or managing EW capabilities. The course covers EW mission engineering, threat-driven requirements, architecture design, sensor and jammer integration, MOSA principles, C5ISR interfaces, verification, validation, and program risk management. Participants learn how to align mission needs, technical baselines, operational constraints, and lifecycle decisions across complex EW programs.
Electronic warfare increasingly intersects with cybersecurity as RF systems, mission networks, processors, and data links become software-defined and connected. Cybersecurity considerations help protect EW mission data, control interfaces, embedded processing, and operational integrity against adversarial exploitation. Strong cybersecurity awareness supports resilient EW architectures in contested electromagnetic and cyber environments.
