United States: The U.S. Army has modified its strategy for long-range electronic warfare, signals intelligence, and cyber systems considering potential outcomes for battles in various environments. TLS-EAB is designed for use by more giant Army formations, such as divisions and corps, with innumerable soldiers and powerful weapons. In addition, the system is regarded as a crucial component of the service's "deep sensing" playbook, or its ability to detect, track, target, and strike adversaries with more precision and at longer distances.

The Army is "evolving their acquisition approach," specifically for flexibility, according to Mark Kitz, director of the PEO IEW&S, or Programme Executive Office for Intelligence, Electronic Warfare, and Sensors. For example, targets and topography are vastly different between Europe, where the U.S. may clash with Russia, and the Indo-Pacific, where it may conflict with China.

On April 26, Kitz made a statement at the online C4ISRNET Conference. To create a specialized solution for the various types of contested and congested environments, we will build tailored solutions to the combatant commands we operate. For TLS-EAB concepts and demonstrations, the Army signed separate agreements with Lockheed Martin and General Dynamics Mission Systems in August. The initial phase cost $15 million and lasted 11 months.
