UNWAVE Develops Pastka System for Smart Control of EW Equipment

The Ukrainian company UNWAVE has introduced the Pastka software solution for automatic control of electronic warfare (EW) equipment.

The system was first presented at DALO Industry Days 2025.

The software provides situational awareness of detection and suppression equipment on an interactive map.

With Pastka, the operator can monitor reactions and the status of equipment and control it in real time. The system can operate in both manual and automatic modes.

The software allows automatic updates of signals and task types. Equipment can also be configured remotely.

“Drones are a new reality. Russians are attacking both the front line and infrastructure to cause damage and spread terror. Pastka can automatically control EW systems to make protection more reliable and reduce the burden on operators,” the company said in a comment to Militarnyi.

The solution can be used to protect ports, power plants, gas stations and mobile towers from drone threats. It can also be applied to monitor border areas.

Pastka supports integration with EW systems from other manufacturers.

How it works

In order to protect a specific facility, detection systems are deployed to identify threats.

Suppression systems are then activated and integrated into a single network.

When an enemy drone is detected, the system determines its direction and the type of communication used to control it, then activates suppression systems.

A mobile version of Pastka is also available, allowing installation on vehicles. Compact EW systems can operate while moving or in stationary mode.
