Moreover, under aircraft power, participants were able to perform ground-based electromagnetic compatibility testing of electronic attack techniques and electronic support survey collection, he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the last publicized activities in which MFEW participated yielded several valuable findings for Army leaders, including the ability to see electronic threats from farther away because the platform is airborne and can see over the horizon.<\/p>\n\n\n\t<aside class=\"smg-interstitial-link wp-block-smg-interstitial-link\">\n\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/c4isrnet\/show-reporter\/ausa\/2019\/10\/18\/heres-whats-promising-from-the-armys-first-jamming-pod\/\" class=\"smg-interstitial-link__inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"smg-interstitial-link__media\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"214\" src=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/mq-1c-gray-eagle.jpg.jpg?w=300\" class=\"smg-interstitial-link__image wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"smg-interstitial-link__content\">\n\t\t\t\t<span class=\"smg-interstitial-link__kicker\">Related<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"smg-interstitial-link__title\">Here\u2019s what\u2019s promising from the Army\u2019s first jamming pod<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"smg-interstitial-link__excerpt\">The Army&#039;s first jamming pod, known as Multi-Functional Electronic Warfare Air Large, showed promise at a recent exercise, officials said.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t<\/aside>\n\t\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">MFEW is just one aspect to the Army\u2019s multifaceted approach to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.c4isrnet.com\/electronic-warfare\/2019\/09\/04\/measuring-progress-on-the-armys-electronic-warfare-renaissance\/\" target=_blank>reinvigorate electronic warfare capability<\/a> to the field after it divested much of its systems following the Cold War.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Other systems include the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.c4isrnet.com\/electronic-warfare\/2020\/06\/12\/army-units-in-europe-are-getting-new-electronic-warfare-equipment\/\" target=_blank>Terrestrial Layer System-Brigade Combat Team<\/a> \u2014 the service\u2019s first integrated electronic warfare, signals intelligence and cyber platform mounted on a Stryker for brigades \u2014 and the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.c4isrnet.com\/electronic-warfare\/2020\/10\/01\/us-army-to-upgrade-bigger-units-with-new-electronic-warfare-gear\/\" target=_blank>TLS-Echelons Above Brigade<\/a> \u2014 a larger version of TLS-BCT designed to see signals deeper into enemy territory for theater, corps and division levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Army is also planning to develop MFEW for rotary systems and smaller unmanned platforms, though officials have said they are still a ways off, especially in regard to small drones. The electronic warfare community is awaiting the Army\u2019s decision regarding replacing the RQ-7 Shadow drone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The 30-month phase two work for MFEW will push forward some of what took place in the first phase, Wagner said, adding the parties involved will perform more demonstrations of electronic warfare and radio frequency-enabled cyber capabilities, as well as additional tests and demonstration activities.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The U.S. Army demonstrated its first brigade airborne electronic warfare jamming pod at
