With the advent of radio communications in the 19^th century, warfare technologies were used in all major conflicts. Especially, the electronic warfare techniques played a major role in modernizing the warfare during the World War II. Governments across countries invest actively in these technologies to develop electronic warfare systems that define the strength of their defense system. Over the years, significant research and development has been carried out in electronic warfare systems, owing to features such as attacking, defending, and sensing the enemies approaching during a war, in addition to the use of electromagnetic spectrums in the warfare systems.

According to the market intelligence report published by BIS Research, titled “Global Cognitive Electronic Warfare System Market – Analysis and Forecast, 2023 - 2028”, the cognitive electronic warfare system market is expected to generate a revenue of $385.7 million by 2023. Also, the market is expected to register a growth rate of 19.20%, during the forecast period from 2023 to 2028. The growth of the market is aided by the factors such as growing demand for artificial intelligence in military and the need for improved situational awareness in defense. Owing to the advantage of detecting unwanted threats in a hostile environment, the demand for cognitive warfare system is on the rise.
