As the Russian war in Ukraine drags on, electronic warfare techniques may be giving Russian forces an edge, according to some intelligence analysts.<\/p>\n

In the latest phase of the war, which is now entering a sixth month of combat, various observers have noted that Russian electronic warfare (EW) systems are playing a greater role<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The EW designation refers to a range of hardware and software systems that can jam, intercept, or locate enemy communications. In June, the Associated Press<\/em> reported that these systems were starting to be used more in eastern Ukraine<\/a>, where shorter supply lines allowed Russian troops to move the specialized EW equipment closer to the battlefield. Ukrainian officials told AP<\/em> that GPS jamming of drone guidance systems presented a \u201cpretty severe\u201d threat to their effectiveness.<\/p>\n
