Neural Net: The Future of Cooperative Air Combat Networking

-
Image
By the early 2030s, the battlespace had become a complex web of stealth aircraft, advanced electronic warfare systems, and multi-domain sensor fusion. Traditional cooperative radar techniques, while revolutionary in the early 2000s, were increasingly vulnerable to sophisticated jamming, signal interception, and pattern exploitation. The Swedish Air Force’s response to these emerging threats was Radar-Samverkan 2.0, codenamed “Neural Net” — a distributed, AI-driven, multi-platform combat network designed to remove single points of failure and extend the survivability of both manned and unmanned assets. Built around the Gripen E Block IV, Saab’s GlobalEye AEW&C, and MQ-28 Ghost Bat drones, Neural Net represented not just an upgrade, but a complete rethinking of how air forces cooperated in high-threat environments. 1.

Ghost Net: Modern Network-Centric Air Combat

-
Image
In the evolving landscape of aerial warfare, information dominance and networked sensor fusion often outweigh brute force. The Ghost Net engagement, conducted by a Swedish Air Force four-ship Gripen E formation in coordination with NATO assets, exemplifies how carefully integrated avionics, stealthy emission tactics, and cooperative engagement can achieve decisive results against technologically advanced adversaries. In this mission, “Ghost Flight” intercepted and neutralized a Russian Su-35S patrol over the northern approaches to the Baltic, employing Radar-Samverkan — a coordinated radar and electronic warfare doctrine — to full effect. The engagement demonstrates not only the capability of the Gripen E’s avionics and weapons systems, but also the strategic advantage of information sharing and disciplined EMCON (Emission Control) in Beyond Visual Range (BVR) combat. 1.
