Sovereign skies

Air sovereignty and connectivity in today’s defense landscape

Electromagnetic spectrum operations (EMSO) are crucial for air forces to gain a decisive advantage in the air domain. EMSO enables situational awareness, secure communications, electronic warfare, air defense, intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR), ultimately providing a critical information advantage.

Rohde & Schwarz is a leading provider of airborne and ATC communications, SIGINT payloads, drone defense solutions, and ground-based air defense systems. Additionally, we develop state-of-the-art test and measurement equipment for avionics RDT&E.

Rohde & Schwarz is a national champion for the international cooperation program Future Combat Air System (FCAS). This program is dedicated to mastering future air combat challenges and enhancing European autonomy and sovereignty in defense and security.
