Europe already has a substantial industrial base in software-defined radio and tactical communications, but that base still appears primarily as a cluster of strong national ecosystems rather than as a fully integrated European market. The central issue is not whether European firms can design and produce credible radios, waveforms, and secure communications architectures. It is whether the combination of ESSOR, SCA-based portability, NATO-compatible interoperability requirements, and new Union-level programme activity is beginning to turn a fragmented landscape into a more coherent European communications domain.
