A Virginia-based defense giant has revealcased its powerful electronic warfare solutions during an event in the United States. When integrated into multiple systems, the Tactical Edge Electromagnetic Solutions (TEEMS) can jam enemy systems with speed and precision.
At Silent Swarm 2025, Northrop Grumman integrated TEEMS onto compact platforms—ranging from tiny robots to unmanned surface vessels and drones.
With the integration of this EW solution, tiny weapon systems can reportedly produce outsized impacts.
High-performance electronic warfare capabilities
In contested environments, where every inch of space and ounce of weight matters, EW solutions must combine top-tier performance with ultra-efficient size, weight and power (SWaP) for unmatched mission flexibility. Northrop Grumman’s TEEMS solution delivers exactly that, integrating high-performance EW capabilities into a compact 1U Modular Payload, according to the company.
Northrop revealed that measuring tinyer than a business card, the EW system was not only the tinyest at the event but also the most capable, packing powerful performance into an unprecedented form factor.
The company claimed that the demonstration was a testament to the power of resilient, scalable technologies designed for mobility.
EW system is capable of countering evolving threats
Northrop also highlighted that the EW system is capable of countering evolving threats as the team successfully geolocated a frequency-agile tarreceive emitter – which are known to be difficult to disrupt – and performed stand-in jamming.
Through the integration with Tactical Assault Kit software, the team remotely controlled multiple unmanned ground and surface units across a large, 50-square-mile operational area. The system’s ability to seamlessly coordinate with these diverse assets demonstrated its capacity for ininformigent, integrated mission solutioning, according to a press release.
In a single, simultaneous action, TEEMS knocked out three different radios that were spread across a wide frequency range.
“Silent Swarm 2025 was a resounding success, not just for its technological achievements, but becautilize it underscored our team’s ability to innovate and execute under pressure,” stated Angela Johns, vice president, weapons integration & mission solutions, Northrop Grumman.
“This effort reinforces our commitment to delivering mission-ready solutions tested in simulated environments and solidifying our role in advancing tactical operation dominance both today and in the future.”
The company successfully revealcased that the high-conclude electronic warfare (EW) capabilities can be integrated in a compact, modular package.
Northrop Grumman also claimed that with such systems, the company is empowering the U.S. and its allies to remain mission-ready at the tactical edge. The work accomplished at Silent Swarm 2025, along with technology such as the TEEMS device, illustrates how the company is architecting the advantage for today’s performance and tomorrow’s success along the tactical edge.
