- Germany's permanent brigade in Lithuania will use electronic warfare capabilities to monitor military activity in Kaliningrad and Belarus, providing early warning of regional threats.
- Due to be fully deployed next year, the brigade will collect data on Russian and Belarusian military emitters to update electronic-warfare databases used by German and allied forces.
