a seminar on modern trends in electronic warfare, and future development in field.

modern trends in electronic warfare ppt

The growth of electronic warfare (EW) over recent years has been a reflection of advancing technology, combined with increasing demand due to operational deployment overseas. The major factor, however, expected to impact the EW market over the course of the next decade is the state of public finances, and as a consequence the size of military budgets. Defence ministries are under severe pressure to limit their spending outlays. This has implications for the EW market in that despite being somewhat immune to large defence spending cuts, due to the utility of such advanced systems, limited military procurement and upgrade contracts across a multitude of platforms will act as a restraint on the EW market. Nevertheless, Visiongain has determined that the value of the electronic warfare market in 2011 will reach $8.89bn.

Electronic warfare (EW) capabilities are sought by militaries worldwide for both offensive and defensive tasks, with the protection of troops and hardware at the centre of the quest for electromagnetic spectrum (EMS) dominance. Indeed, achieving superiority over enemy forces in the EMS domain is seen as vital for the success of any military operation within the context of modern warfare. Here, armed forces are seeking to nullify threats such as missiles and improvised explosive devices (IED) by employing a full range of solutions including jamming, anti-radiation missiles, counter radio controlled improvised explosive device (RCIED) systems, and ELINT (electronic intelligence).

Economic and budgetary fears are less profound in emerging nations within Asia and the Middle East such as India, China, South Korea, and Saudi Arabia; yet the ability of these nations to continually increase their procurement of EW systems is also dependant on wider defence modernisation programmes.
