What is EW?

EW stands for Electronic Warfare. It involves the use of electromagnetic spectrum (radio waves, microwaves, infrared, etc.) to attack, defend, and disrupt enemy operations. EW can include jamming enemy communications, radar systems, or other electronic devices; using decoys to mislead the enemy; and intercepting and analyzing enemy signals. It is commonly used in military operations to gain a tactical advantage by impairing the enemy's ability to communicate, navigate, and coordinate their forces.
