Presentation of the training
THE CHALLENGE
Fast evolution of the battlefield, with advances in radar, ECM tactics and drones.
OUR SOLUTION
- Robust Radar, Radio and Electro-Optical (EO) knowledge and study related EW techniques.
- Provide principles of modern Radar and advanced EW techniques & technology.
- Study operational use concepts of EW equipment and systems, and typical EW tactics.
- Undertake an extensive operational & evaluate the performance of common EW systems training by simulation tools.
Note : the 4 week version offers less details, explanations and techniques. The EW project and exercices are shorten and some visits are not programmed. More information on request.
Audience & Prerequisites
Designed for aircrew “ear-marked” EW Officers, Non-Commissioned Officers and engineers assigned in squadrons or EW centres and managing a team of EW/ECM specialists in dedicated EW units.
