How does a digital signal become a measurable electromagnetic transmission? And what happens when noise, filtering, antennas and propagation change its behaviour? FreeScopes Basic III and IV connect these questions in a hands-on engineering laboratory.

Deception jamming does not simply hide a radar target in noise. It tries to make the radar believe something that is not true. Practical ECCM training therefore needs to show trainees how deception appears in radar data — and how it can be recognised.

Modern ATSEP training connects real CNS hardware, radar, simulation and system monitoring so trainees can learn by measuring, processing and troubleshooting.

SkyRadar’s Active Target brings real RF range deception and RGPO into the lab, connecting physical radar measurements with hands-on ECCM analysis.

Electronic-warfare education becomes more useful when the trainee can follow the complete chain: from a real radar measurement, through a controlled deceptive effect, to ECCM analysis and finally to the question of whether an AI model can recognise and interpret a disturbed radar scene.

Artificial intelligence is often explained with abstract examples: cats and dogs, handwritten digits, or large public image datasets. These examples are useful, but they do not show how AI can be taught in a technical radar environment. In this short video, we demonstrate how FreeScopes AI turns real radar measurements into a practical machine-learning exercise: students collect and label data from three radar targets, train a neural network, and use it to classify the measured objects.

Eurosatory 2026, taking place 15–19 June 2026 in Paris, will bring together defence organisations, research institutes, and industry partners working on technologies for sensing, protection, and spectrum operations. Among the key themes shaping modern defence capabilities are cognitive radar, electronic counter-countermeasures (ECCM), and electronic warfare (EW).

In May 2025, the multinational field exercise Hedgehog 2025 (also known as Siil 2025 in Estonia) brought together more than 16 000 personnel from 12 member states of the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation. With scenarios centered on a simulated incursion across Estonia’s eastern border, the drills were intended to test European deterrence and defense concepts under high pressure (Defence24.com, 17.02.2026).

AAE Opinion No. 18, “Collaborative Air and Space Combat Operations in Europe” calls for collaborative air and space combat structures in Europe; this article examines its implications and outlines a platform-based C4ISR response.
