EW Reenergized - The Army Phoenix Taking Its Place in the Joint / Coalition Fight
Objective
The inaugural Warfighter Information Advantage Symposium addresses the synergies of Signal, Cyber, and EW and their critical role in creating and exploiting information advantages as a key aspect of multidomain operations. With the Army experiencing a rebirth and transformation of EW after decades of absence, this novel forum will focus on the combat development aspects of fighting and maintaining an advantage in the electromagnetic environment. Emphasis on evolving DOTmLPF-P, new and emerging requirements, training, education, experimentation, game-changing operational capabilities, and force modernization will make this a unique venue for government, military, industry, and academia to exchange insights and collaborate on the way forward.
