The IMSE could be used in combination with the electronic warfare equipment the army has leased from the US to create a

C4ISR system, which is a C4I unit with surveillance and reconnaissance.

Chang Li-teh said the UAV, which the army has leased for use in electronic warfare was able to travel long distances to find and jam enemy troops' electronic equipment.

A similar UAV used by Israel, Chang said, can travel 300km to 400km before it reaches and hits a target like a cruise missile or high-speed anti-radiation missiles.
