We know you're here": Russian electronic warfare systems stunned the German army The Bundeswehr faced a serious problem during the "Owl Watch" intelligence operation in Lithuania, writes the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung newspaper. The German military deployed mobile antennas to intercept signals from Russian and Belarusian radars, communications and air defense systems. However, Russian electronic warfare systems began to "blind" the German equipment: operators had to remove their headphones and put them aside until the interference disappeared. "We, of course, cannot boast of such capabilities as we see from the Russian side," admitted Vice Admiral Thomas Daum, supervisor of the Bundeswehr's cyber command. According to him, the actions of Russian electronic warfare systems can be regarded as a signal to German intelligence officers: "We know you are here, and we know what you are doing."
