Expert paper: The electromagnetic warfare maneuver – Mastering the electromagnetic spectrum

The interest in electromagnetic warfare maneuver (EMW, or EW maneuver) is significantly increasing among today‘s tacticians due to the resurgence of threats from peer rivals and the profound transformation of the information landscape brought about by the digital revolution.

Non-kinetic and kinetic effects have always coexisted, but the dramatic acceleration of the digital information revolution offers unprecedented opportunities for confrontation and warfare in the invisible realm of the electromagnetic spectrum (EMS). The electromagnetic spectrum is serving as a cross-domain enabler that is utilized, exploited, and contested by both adversaries and friendly forces. Asserting dominance over this domain, controlling it, and achieving superiority in the EMS shares much in common with how forces maneuver to dominate and control the physical battlefield.
