Around the "electronic war" that interfere with the opponent's communication equipment and radar using electromagnetic waves and infrared, the Japanese defense province will be created in the spring of 202180 -person special forces.Ready to deploy the Jianjun station (Kumamoto City) to enhance the outlying defense capabilities of the islands and other places in the southwest.It will also strengthen the cultivation of professional talents.
While interfere with the other party's use of electromagnetic waves, electronic warfare also protects the country's use of electromagnetic waves to ensure the overall combat advantage.In particular, the combat method of capturing outlying islands is different from land operations. It is necessary to use the communication to keep the land and navy forces in collaboration.For the defense side, it is very important to make the other party's communication failure.
The vehicle -type network electronic warfare system "News"
Specifically, when other countries have the sign of capturing the outlying islands of Japan, they first masterThe electromagnetic wave frequencies used for login and nearby ships to communicate and radar.Mixing the electromagnetic wave of the same frequency into a interference to make the other party's communication fail.It can also prevent missiles guided by radio -guided missiles.
The newly established special electronics troops are scheduled to deploy in the Land of the Jianjun Army in the Land Self -Defense Force.During the outlying islands defense, it is conceived to collaborate with the Outdoor Outdel for Outdel for Outamsuya (Sakho City, Nagasaki Prefecture).
As an electronic war unit of the Land Self -Defense Force, the first electronic team established during the Cold War was located in the East Chitose (Hokkaido Chitose City).Due to the friction between the Diaoyu Islands and China, the necessity of Japan in the direction of the islands in the southwest, so that the newly established special forces are resident in Kyushu.
Before creating a new unit, Japan carried out special training for electromagnetic waves at the Metropolitan Self -Defense Forces Communications School (Kanagawa Prefecture) since July.The latest electronic warfare that covers the frequency of coverage than in the past, which is known as the "electromagnetic wave war", will introduce new learning courses.It will also learn the latest electronic warfare capabilities of various countries.
In March of the Land Self -Defense Forces Communication School, the vehicle -type network electronic warfare system "News" was introduced.The frequency range of the collection of electromagnetic waves is large, and it can also interfere with enemy communication during the movement.The newly established troops will also introduce this system to master the operation of NEWS through new courses.
The Japanese government proposed a policy of improving electronic warfare capabilities in the defense plan outline and mid -term defense preparation plan determined by the Cabinet Conference in December 2018.
Electronic warfare capabilities have become an indispensable factor in combat in recent years.While Russia's Crimean battles in 2014, Russia conducted a "hybrid combat" combining cyber attacks and electronic warfare, interfered with the command control of the Ukrainian army.By blocking the global positioning system (GPS) signal, the activities of drones are interfered.
