Source

Source summary

The page describes gaps in current electronic-intelligence systems: narrow frequency coverage, stationary form factors, weak direction finding, limited modularity and integration, and basic recording without advanced analysis such as radio-frequency fingerprinting. The heading calls for a man-portable ELINT system with electronic-support-measures capability, but the page supplies no complete target specification. Operational signal-analysis details are intentionally omitted.
