Electromagnetic spectrum management to obtain and maintain supremacy on the battlefield, with enhanced self-protection to preserve assets in the face of massive confrontation.

Our expertise in Communications Intelligence

We can intercept, locate, analyze, jam enemy electromagnetic emissions providing a strategic and tactical advantage.

Field-proven solution

The “Tactical Electronic Warfare System” solution is a field proven vehicle-mounted solution that demonstrated its effectiveness and robustness on many low or high intensity conflicts in Middle East, Europe and Asia during the last decade.
Turnkey, scalable, vehicle-mounted solution

Scalable architecture to the customer tactical needs, allowing coping with all communications from HF to V/U/SHF frequency band. ESM/DF and ECM capabilities can be integrated in shelters with optimized size to fit on 4x4 wheels vehicles, or integrated in armored vehicles.
Based on a high-performance direction finder and software-defined jammer

A comprehensive solution of Tactical Communications ESM and ECM stations based on the latest generation of Thales direction finders, receivers and jammers.
Relying on secure radio communications for networking

Our systems leans on Thales military secured V/UHF tactical radios allowing sharing data in a highly secured manner. This maximized data sharing between the different ESM/ECM stations and the commander.

In high-intensity conflicts, electronic warfare capabilities enable forces to disrupt enemy communications, radars and other sensors to ensure battlefield superiority. These systems protect friendly assets from detection and targeting, enable secure allied communications and counter threats like drones or guided weapons. Electronic warfare is vital for situational awareness and mission success in modern warfare.

Electronic warfare ensuring electromagnetic spectrum dominance

TEWS is a tactical electronic surveillance solution covering HF to V/U/SHF with wideband coverage and fast scanning to intercept agile signals. It offers high direction-finding accuracy via various antennas, operating as a stand-alone solution or integrated in larger EW systems. TEWS includes sensors, exploitation tools, platform integration and C2 with secure networks, enhancing situational awareness by monitoring enemy communications and generating electronic orders of battle.

In increasingly contested environments, mastering the electromagnetic spectrum is key for operational success. Our offensive jamming solution collects intelligence, neutralises enemy communications and disrupts their command capabilities. With 40 years of expertise in EW serving French deterrence, our electromagnetic attack solutions draw on proven experience in both asymmetric and symmetric conflicts.

Our ECLIPSE self-protection jamming solution protects key assets (mobile radars, surface ships, etc.) against UAV, swarms and guided munition by simultaneously disrupting GNSS signals and command and video communication links between the drone and its pilot. ECLIPSE also protects against Remote Control Improvised Explosive Devices (RCIED) while ensuring friendly communications remain intact.

Thales has developed a lightweight, remotely controlled EW payload designed for deployment on small drones to detect and locate radio signals tens of kilometres away without active emissions. Weighing less than 5 kg and consuming under 40 W of power, it is optimised for use on free-flying, autonomous or tethered drones, complementing existing electronic warfare assets on the battlefield. It provides front-line units with unprecedented, agile and discreet access to electromagnetic intelligence.

Strategic infrastructure system for intercepting ground and sky wave communications in the HF band. It monitors, identifies, locates and listens to HF transmissions over several thousand kilometres. Based on TRC 6500 sensors, it offers full HF band digitalisation, super-resolution direction finding and monitoring. Benefits include scalable capacity, long-range coverage (up to 6,000 km) and automated monitoring for reduced operator workload.
