ELINT (Electronic Intelligence)

Electronic Intelligence (ELINT) is the process of gathering information by intercepting and analyzing electronic signals emitted by enemy or foreign systems, such as radars, communication devices, and electronic sensors. It is used to understand the capabilities, locations, and intentions of other nations' military or technological assets without direct contact. ELINT helps military and intelligence agencies assess threats and make strategic decisions by interpreting patterns and features of signals, providing valuable insights into an adversary’s electronic infrastructure.
