The EWPMT pulls together battlefield data and manages electronic warfare and spectrum management.<\/p>\n
It is a command-and-control planning tool that lets allows users to \u201cvisualize the potential effects of electronic warfare in the field and chart courses of action to prevent jammed capabilities,\u201d according to Army Times\u2019 sister publication,\u00a0C4ISRNET<\/a>.<\/p>\n What that means for the soldiers is a way to see the invisible threats of EW and also put out their own \u201cnon-kinetic\u201d effects on the enemy.<\/p>\n \u201cAs a planner, EWPMT enabled me to visualize my effects in the electromagnetic spectrum (EMS),\u201d said brigade CEMA head, Chief Warrant Officer 2 Brandon Cruz, in the\u00a0release<\/a>. \u201cThe modeling and simulation tools EWPMT provides enabled me to position Electromagnetic Warfare (EW) systems onto the optimal piece of terrain on the battlefield.\u201d<\/p>\n When the unit moved from planning to operations soldiers transferred from non-lethal to lethal fires, Cruz said.<\/p>\n The tool is expected to see an Army decision that would distribute it across the force by early next year.<\/p>\n C4ISRNET\u00a0<\/a>previously reported that the Army was\u00a0the first\u00a0<\/a>to demonstrate, \u201cthe ability to remotely control electronic warfare sensors through an over-the-air data link and feed the information back to a central battle management tool.\u201d<\/p>\n Earlier test versions of the EWPMT were wired to the device, making for difficult field operations when compared to remote abilities.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.fie.undef.edu.ar\/ceptm\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/H4AGEUGIEFC6ZKRIIZAKEZAY2A.jpg\")
