Background:
Control and Control and exploitation of the electromagnetic spectrum has become as much a part of modern warfare as air superiority or dominance of the sea lanes. Electronic Warfare (EW) is the mission area responsible for establishing and maintaining a favourable ‘position’ of own military entities in the electromagnetic domain (ESM, ECM and EA), a domain in which the applications and systems utilizing it are increasing with accelerating speed. This TG follows from the work of SCI-358 and SCI-320.
Objectives:
The objective of the projected TG is to couple and interface with the AWWCG by providing a visible assessment of capabilities, shortfalls and resolution paths. The TG will provide scientific support for the NEMO trials, and/or AWWCG Workshops, by adopting elements of the scientific method to permit more control over objectives and trial activity from year to year.
Topics:
- Future threats: Identify targeting mechanisms; Identify trajectories; Identify seeker mechanisms, including ECCM; Identify and verify counter measure options and tactics, including left-of-launch ECM.
- Enabling EW (Electronic Attack) concept development.
- Joint and/or collaborative EW concept development and validation (e.g. via combined NNAG-AWWCG – NAFAG-AG3 trials)
- Force) ASMD simulation and modelling; model validation across the NATO nations.
- (Force) EW tactical decision aid validation during field trials.
- Set platform signature requirements in association with SET-269 RTG (EO/IR) and SET-295 RTG (Radar); Investigate impact of active RF emission signatures.
- Provide technical or scientific advice for specific related topics, e.g. NASMDEF (NATO Anti-Ship Missile Defence Evaluation Facility), and/or specific NIAG EW-related studies.
- Identify areas of research for study groups (STO studies) e.g. Enabling EW
