Ukraine is already racing to catch up with Russia when it comes to electronic warfare.
Electronic warfare, or EW, involves weapons or tactics using the electromagnetic spectrum.
Pavlo Petrychenko, drone commander with Ukraine’s 59th Motorized Brigade, says destroying Russia's electronic warfare systems is crucial to Ukraine's war effort.
Otherwise, there’s a real risk that electronic warfare systems can work against you, downing your own drones, Fedorov added.
It’s a future where “electronic warfare capabilities, tactics are integrated into conventional force operations,” she added.
