Provision of a Radio Frequency Emissions Collection Capability for Exercise Wessex Storm

HF, VHF and UHF radio links, using voice and data, are the primary means of command and control at the tactical level. However, the electronic emissions from these radios can be easily intercepted by an adversary allowing this data to be collected, analysed and formations identified. CTG currently lacks the capability to assess and analyse the emissions of exercising units, which in turn limits the understanding of a units Emission Control (EMCON). Our potential adversaries, including Russia, have invested heavily in Electronic Warfare (EW) which, coupled with their extensive indirect fire capability and less restrictive Rules of Engagement, makes adherence to EMCON and use of Counter-Surveillance Control Measures (CSCM) critical for survivability.
