Artificial intelligence is often explained with abstract examples: cats and dogs, handwritten digits, or large public image datasets. These examples are useful, but they do not show how AI can be taught in a technical radar environment. In this short video, we demonstrate how FreeScopes AI turns real radar measurements into a practical machine-learning exercise: students collect and label data from three radar targets, train a neural network, and use it to classify the measured objects.

Eurosatory 2026, taking place 15–19 June 2026 in Paris, will bring together defence organisations, research institutes, and industry partners working on technologies for sensing, protection, and spectrum operations. Among the key themes shaping modern defence capabilities are cognitive radar, electronic counter-countermeasures (ECCM), and electronic warfare (EW).

In May 2025, the multinational field exercise Hedgehog 2025 (also known as Siil 2025 in Estonia) brought together more than 16 000 personnel from 12 member states of the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation. With scenarios centered on a simulated incursion across Estonia’s eastern border, the drills were intended to test European deterrence and defense concepts under high pressure (Defence24.com, 17.02.2026).

AAE Opinion No. 18, “Collaborative Air and Space Combat Operations in Europe” calls for collaborative air and space combat structures in Europe; this article examines its implications and outlines a platform-based C4ISR response.

This article provides an overview of cognitive radar and cognitive electronic warfare, explaining adaptive sensing, decision-making, and the role of algorithms, simulation, and training.

As U.S. strategic focus shifts toward the Indo-Pacific, Europe faces rising pressure to coordinate defense autonomously; this article examines the technical role of ISR integration, MPCC, PESCO, and EDF in enabling European military action.

This blog explains why chaff clouds and radar decoys remain relevant in EW training, while a short video shows how they are configured and displayed in SkySim’s ECCM extension.

This article introduces electronic counter-countermeasures explained as a layered ECCM stack, from waveform agility to multi-static geometry. It further describes SkyRadar trains these capabilities.

With the release of FreeScopes AI 1, SkyRadar introduces a structured framework for applying artificial intelligence to radar-based target detection and classification. The system is designed to bridge the gap between raw radar signals and operationally relevant insight, following a transparent and reproducible processing chain.
