HENSOLDT’s new TAERVUS system steps into the electronic warfare (EW) fight with one mission: shut down enemy signals before they become a threat.

Named after the Latin “Terra” (earth) and “Corvus” (crow), the tool folds sensing, analysis, and jamming into a single architecture designed to give operators faster control of the spectrum.

The setup brings together advanced radio direction finders, high-performance receivers, jamming and excitation tools, and the company’s spectrum battle management suite.

TAERVUS covers communications intelligence and EW missions across high, very high, ultra high, and microwave frequency bands.

“Entities that mobilize swiftly while simultaneously disrupting adversaries’ information collection capabilities secure a crucial edge in combat,” said Dr. Torben Brack, Vice President and Head of Cyberspace & EW at HENSOLDT.

The Disruption Engine

TAERVUS gives crews a unified suite for reconnaissance and jamming, letting them track hostile emissions while disrupting priority signals.

To achieve this coordination, its modular, “software-defined” design links sensors and effectors into a coordinated network, also allowing the system to adapt as mission demands shift.

AI-driven processing handles the heavy lift of sorting signals and ranking threats, which can lighten operator workload and sharpen situational awareness.

Predictive jamming tools add another defensive layer by studying environmental patterns and recommending optimal disruption strategies before hostile systems can react.

Together, these features are built to shorten decision timelines and give commanders clearer intelligence on enemy emitters.

The broader aim is information advantage: tighter awareness, quicker reactions, and more options in fast-moving EW engagements.
