The 43rd Annual Point Mugu Electronic Warfare Symposium will facilitate the exchange of enabling concepts and provide a venue to disseminate current research in the fields of collaborative electronic warfare. Prominent leaders, contributors and representatives from the military, government, academia and industry will come together to address current electronic warfare gaps and emerging technologies in collaborative electronic warfare required to address these gaps.

Advocates point to their particular project or personnel as vital to U.S. warfighting capacity. Technologists point to new capabilities that will allow us to do more with equal or even fewer resources. (AOL Defense)
