WELCOME

Welcome to the site for the annual Electronic Warfare and Avionics (EWA) Conference. We are happy to announce the 2026 conference and look forward to collaborating with Electromagnetic Spectrum (EMS) professionals focused on Maintaining Spectrum Dominance. The EWA Conference is an annual event held each spring at the Museum of Aviation, Robins AFB, Georgia, and provides current technical briefings related to each year’s theme. This year’s conference will be held March 24-26, 2026 at the Scott Theater, Eagle Building, Museum of Aviation. The EWA Conference provides a venue for Air Force, DoD industry professionals and academics to share information and engage in dialog on the latest technology and policy issues in the areas of Electromagnetic Warfare (EW), Avionics, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR). Complementary GTRI technical short courses will be offered. Refer back to this site for updated information.

THEME

The 2026 theme is “Synergy in Electromagnetic Systems: Integrating Position, Timing, Sensing, and Effecting for Spectrum Superiority."  This year's technical conference focuses on enablers – architectures, algorithms, and applications – that ensure operational dominance. We are soliciting papers related to Electronic Warfare (EW), Intelligence, Surveillance & Reconnaissance (ISR), Electromagnetic Battle Management (EMBM), Combat Avionics, Precision Navigation Timing (PNT) or EMS Data Analytics and may include technical solutions (software and/or hardware), novel acquisition strategies, initiatives, enablers, techniques, methods, policy/doctrine updates, interoperability, open systems, modeling, architectures, and best practices.

Submit unclassified abstracts to AFLCMC.WNY.AFTechProg@us.af.mil by January 31, 2026.
