Fundamentals of Electronic Warfare (EW) Operations Training by Tonex
This course provides a comprehensive introduction to Electronic Warfare (EW), a critical aspect of modern military operations. It focuses on the use of electromagnetic and directed energy to control or exploit the electromagnetic spectrum (EMS) in military engagements.
Participants will gain an understanding of the three core missions of EW: Electronic Attack (EA), Electronic Protection (EP), and Electronic Warfare Support (ES), as defined by JP 3-13.1. The course covers theoretical foundations, practical applications, and strategic implications of EW operations, enabling participants to effectively implement EW strategies in various military contexts.
Learning Objectives:
- Understand the Fundamental Concepts of EW: Gain a solid grasp of EW principles, including the use and control of electromagnetic and directed energy in military contexts.
- Electronic Attack (EA) Proficiency: Learn the strategies and technologies involved in EA, including the employment of electromagnetic and directed energy weapons.
- Electronic Protection (EP) Tactics: Understand actions taken to protect against effects of EMS usage that degrade friendly combat capability, including frequency management and signal safeguarding.
- Electronic Warfare Support (ES) Skills: Develop the ability to conduct ES operations, including searching for, intercepting, and locating sources of electromagnetic energy for threat recognition and operational planning.
- Practical Application: Apply EW concepts in simulated environments to understand the real-world implications and strategies of EW operations.
- Strategic Insight: Analyze the role of EW in broader military strategies and understand its impact on modern warfare.
