We curate most relevant posts about Defense Tech on LinkedIn and regularly share key takeaways.
This edition provides a broad overview of the rapidly evolving global defence industry, with a strong emphasis on unmanned systems and counter-UAS (C-UAS) technology. Multiple contributors stress that innovation and rapid adaptation in defence technology are crucial for national security against emerging threats, such as advanced missiles and pervasive drones. There is a significant focus on Europe's defence readiness, with discussions on scaling industrial capacity (as seen with Rheinmetall), strengthening technological sovereignty, and improving procurement processes through agile frameworks and dual-use technologies. Furthermore, the sources highlight Ukraine's critical role as a testing ground for innovation and its transition into a major defence exporter, while other topics include the necessity of AI and autonomy in the kill chain and the complex legal challenges surrounding the deployment of C-UAS solutions in public spaces.
