China studies Ukraine jamming to enhance electronic warfare tactics.
Chinese military researchers are examining electronic warfare tactics based on the jamming experiences observed in the Ukraine conflict, which began with Russia’s invasion in February 2022. Notably, both civilian and military satellite navigation systems, including China’s Beidou, were targeted, prompting a swift counter-jamming response from Western powers led by the United States. This incident is viewed as a significant example of electronic warfare between major military nations, providing valuable lessons for China in enhancing its own electronic warfare capabilities. Such developments underscore the evolving nature of warfare and the critical importance of robust electronic defense systems, especially for India, which faces similar geopolitical challenges.
