Marine Corps Electronic Warfare--A Combat Power Multiplier Marine Corps Electronic Warfare--A Combat Power Multiplier AUTHOR Major Stephen C. Robb, USMC CSC 1990 SUBJECT AREA C4 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY TITLE: MARINE CORPS ELECTRONIC WARFARE--A COMBAT POWER MULTIPLIER THESIS: If the Marine Air-Ground Task Force (MAGTF) Commander is to gain control and manage the electromagnetic spectrum of the future battlefield, he must understand and integrate Electronic Warfare (EW) into his warfighting plans as a combat power multiplier. BACKGROUND: History holds many lessons concerning employment and integration of electronic warfare. Our potential adversary--the Soviet Union, has learned the lesson the hard way by the German Invasion of 1941. Other countries such as Israel, and Great Britain have learned through war experiences that electronic warfare is a combat power multiplier. Much has been written, but little is known about Electronic Warfare. Within the Marine Corps, electronic warfare support is a commodity that all want but really don't know what to do with it when they receive it. Some commanders understand and integrate electronic warfare into their scheme of maneuver, while others think electronic warfare can provide a force field to protect their communications and destroy the enemy's jammers. The modern battlefield today overloads the electromagnetic spectrum from command and control to modern weapon systems. It will tax the MAGTF commander's ability to command. An old adage states that without communications a commander commands nothing. A commander must be able to control and use the electromagnetic spectrum while possessing the ability to deny and exploit the enemy's use. CONCLUSION: Electronic warfare provides the MAGTF commander with a combat power multiplier and an ability to control and shape future battlefields. The key to this multiplier is education and integration into the overall scheme of maneuver. Don't just check the block that Appendix 3 to Annex C is completed. Use it! MARINE
