Emerging Electronic Warfare Capabilities and the Combat Aviation Brigade

摘要

4th CAB's participation in Atlantic Resolve was an opportunity to work with newly fielded EW capabilities, build readiness, and to develop ways to synchronize EW effects. Participation in DR 19 and Combined Resolve XI improved 4th CAB's ability to employ EW sensors, and integrate them with adjacent ground units. In both training exercises, integration of EW increased the brigade's lethality. During DR 19, 4th CAB enhanced real-time targeting and improved the battlefield intelligence picture. For Combined Resolve XI, 4th CAB expanded the use of the Air ROD into the support and consolidation areas, which resulted in reduced reliance on non-organic enablers and overall improved security of mission command nodes.
