Electronic warfare uses entire range of electromagnetic spectrum. Hence it is sometime also known as electromagnetic warfare. Electronic warfare equipment began to be developed back during World War - II, since then electronic warfare system has become more specialized and sophisticated. Electronic Warfare is a military action which involves the use of electromagnetic energy to control, exploit, decrease, or avoid the hostile use of electromagnetic spectrum and it also involves sensing the radar of an incoming missile and listening i.e. collecting an enemy’s radio signals. Global Electronic Warfare Market: Drivers Development in the electromagnetic spectrum drives the use of electronic equipment and associated weapon systems which are required to sense and counter these weapons that is included among the factor driving the electronic warfare market growth. Increasing adoption of visual and infrared techniques such as laser and other technologies are expected encourage the growth of electronic warfare market. Electronic warfare has become an essential requirement of strategic landscape for all war fighters. Situations such as political conflicts, territorial disputes, and cold-wars are expected to positively impact the electronic warfare market. Increasing popularity of small electronic systems that can be integrated within platforms such as unmanned systems is also expected to drive electronic warfare market growth.
