This edition provides a comprehensive overview of the rapidly shifting defence technology landscape in 2026, with a heavy focus on unmanned systems and electronic warfare. The texts highlight a transition from traditional, expensive hardware toward modular, software-driven architectures and affordable drone swarms that challenge the economic sustainability of legacy platforms. Industry leaders and military strategists discuss the urgent need for reforming procurement cycles and strengthening the European and Allied industrial base to address high-intensity conflicts. Key updates include significant investments in counter-UAS technologies, such as Lockheed Martin’s partnership with Fortem, and the delivery of thousands of battle-tested units to the front lines in Ukraine. Furthermore, the reports examine the strategic implications of global munitions shortages and the necessity of integrating artificial intelligence into modern airspace security. Overall, the collection reflects an era of sustained rearmament where speed of innovation and industrial scaling have become the primary determinants of military success.
