Drone and electronic warfare explained
A UAV crew pilot and combat commander, specializing in the use of unmanned systems in combat operations, explains how reconnaissance, electronic warfare and strike drones work in current combat operations. The format is 30 minutes of lecture and 30 minutes of Q&A, live online on 01.10.2026 at 16:00 CET.
What the lecture covers
Reconnaissance and electronic warfare:
How a drone war looks in practice, and what infrastructure and data are required to run it
The frontline echelons and what each one covers: up to 10 km, 15 to 30 km, and 50 km and beyond
The intelligence software crews use for handling data and communication
The drone equipment of a fixed wing crew compared to a multirotor crew
Electronic warfare: how detection and interception work, and what infrastructure they require
Strike drones:
The role of strike drones on the battlefield and the tactics behind them, across supply, reconnaissance and destruction
Short and middle distance drones: radio and fibre optic control, fixed wing platforms, and the equipment the crew needs for each
AI and target lock systems, and what they change in an engagement
Who is it for?
Engineers, product people, founders and investors who want to understand how unmanned systems and electronic warfare are used at the front. You will leave with a working picture of the reconnaissance and strike chain, the equipment behind it, and where the technical gaps are.
