The United States has tested Ukrainian electronic warfare systems as part of its Drone Dominance program, which is aimed at the large-scale introduction of small drones across the US military. Ukrainian developer Unwave brought four EW systems to the trials at Fort Carson, Colorado.
The tests were designed to evaluate drones and counter-drone equipment under conditions resembling real combat. UAVs were tested directly against electronic warfare systems, with 14 drone manufacturers and three EW developers taking part.
According to Ukrainian media reports, the US side requested further support from Unwave for the Drone Dominance program following the trials.
Among the systems demonstrated was Vikha, a tactical-operational EW system operating between 300 MHz and 3.2 GHz. It has a power output exceeding 100 watts and a claimed effective range of more than 300 meters.
Unwave also presented Shatro, designed for installation on vehicles and military equipment. The system operates between 0.2 and 5.8 GHz, with individual channel power ranging from 50 to 100 watts.
Two other systems are primarily designed to counter FPV drones. The portable multichannel Boombox weighs up to 25 kilograms and is intended to protect personnel and positions by creating a jamming zone with a radius of about 50 meters. It operates across the 0.4–1, 1.9–2.7 and 5.8 GHz bands.
Choven-2 has a claimed FPV drone jamming range of up to 70 meters, while Mavic quadcopters can be suppressed from approximately 50 meters.
Unwave says its systems are developed and manufactured in Ukraine, including its own frequency generators, amplifiers and antennas. Its product range also includes equipment for detecting drones and analyzing their signals.
