Participated in the Ukrainian-American Defense Industry Conference DFNC1: US Edition in Washington 🇺🇦🇺🇸 A significantly important event for deepening cooperation with the U.S. in the defense sphere, particularly in joint weapon production. The conference brought together 350 representatives from the defense industries of the U.S., Ukraine, and Europe, as well as key government officials from the Ukrainian and American defense sectors. Shared current needs and how we can be mutually beneficial. The key takeaway: weapons in Ukraine will be more 💪🏻 Notably, one of the main conference's themes was technology in warfare. Discussions covered Ukrainian UAVs, maritime drones, and alternative communication systems — everything that enables us to destroy russian equipment worth millions of dollars and provide an effective response to the enemy. Today, Ukraine is one of the best places to study how technology works in war. Our cases and expertise are highly interesting to American and European partners. Together with the Brave1 team, we discussed potential collaboration in this direction. Personally grateful to our American colleagues for their readiness to support Ukraine in every way. The U.S. is our key partner in this war. Therefore, we strengthen our cooperation. More to come!

While the global media spotlight fixates on the delivery of missiles and tanks to #Ukraine, drones have quietly emerged as the true game-changer in the theater of war, actively deployed by both conflicting parties. In the realm of Putin's military, emphasis is placed on Orlans and Lancets, while on the #Ukrainian front, volunteers craft cutting-edge, garage-built #FPV drones—remote-controlled marvels whose efficacy surpasses even the pinnacle of contemporary artillery (the triumph of FPV drones has prompted the Kremlin to initiate their large-scale production). #Drones have altered the situation to such an extent that both nations find themselves engaged in recalibration of their military strategies, constantly adapting to the ever-evolving realities of the battlefield. Airdrop evolution: Baba-Yaga and Punisher vs Russian Forces From the outset of the full-scale war, #Ukraine embraced a widespread use of drone-delivered munitions, a practice previously confined to a few enthusiasts within the ranks of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU). In the face of frequent shortages of artillery shells and other means of engagement, these “air drops,” as they are dubbed in the Ukrainian military, evolved beyond mere “free hunting” of Russian soldiers. They found a new purpose in providing support to Ukrainian infantry during the assault on Russian positions. The production and development of munitions for drones have burgeoned into a distinct sector of the military-industrial complex. Notably decentralized, this industry has proven resilient to potential disruption by Russian missile strikes. Munitions of enhanced potency, both fragmentation and cumulative, designed for armored vehicle incapacitation, are being manufactured. Tail stabilizers, ensuring a steady descent without erratic maneuvers, are 3D-printed to accompany them, facilitating the activation of the frontal detonator. Russian “volunteers,” initially trailing behind their Ukrainian counterparts, are catching up, establishing their own production capabilities and logistics to compensate for the lag. https://lnkd.in/dPvYM-J9

Drones have rapidly evolved from playing a supporting role in military operations to becoming an essential component of modern warfare — and they are in high demand across the globe. Drones enable widespread real-time situational awareness, improved targeting, and the suppression and destruction of adversary air and missile defenses Co-authored by: Federico Borsari, a Leonardo Fellow at the Center for European Policy Analysis (CEPA) and a NATO 2030 global fellow and Gordon B. “Skip” Davis Jr. a non-resident senior fellow at CEPA who served as NATO’s deputy assistant secretary-general for defense investment. In this POLITICO article they are advocating (unsurpisingly) that, to ensure their own security, European governments need to start paying attention and learn from the use of drones in the Ukraine war and other recent conflicts, including Gaza. #nato #eu #drones #defense #defence #warfare Pravo Consulting Campaign Catapult

#UkraineCrisis | “For #Ukraine, the capture of this unusual #electronicwarfare (EW) vehicle is a significant windfall, which will provide an insight into how Russian counter-#drone technology works. While its installation looks terrible, it also points to this system being an experimental one featuring late technology.” “The knowledge gained from the capture find its way back to the United States and its allies, too. A somewhat unique foreign material exploitation (FME) ecosystem has emerged from the conflict, with some of #Russia's most capable EW gear has been captured or recovered.” SOURCE(S): The War Zone

According to the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute's (#SIPRI) recently released report "Top 100 Arms-producing and Military Services Companies, 2022," even as many leading Western arms manufacturers saw their combined revenues shrink, the revenue of four Turkish-based firms went up by 22 percent, which made them the main driver of sales growth in the Middle East region and represented the largest annual percentage revenue increase by any region last year. Moreover, as the Atlantic Council reported last year, Turkey has transformed from an arms importer while expanding its exports – notably of unmanned aerial systems (UAS)." "As Defense News reported in August of this year, the TF-X prototype sits in a hangar ahead of its maiden flight and fiscal problems could stand in the way of its success, while Turkey seeks potential partners – with such nations as Pakistan, Bangladesh, Indonesia, Kazakhstan and Azerbaijan showing some interest."

The Danish Ministry of Defence has announced a 2.74 billion Danish crowns (EUR 370 million) investment for enhancing surveillance and intelligence in the Arctic and North Atlantic regions. This funding, part of Denmark’s broader commitment to revamp its defence capabilities and meet NATO objectives, will be used to acquire long-range drones. These drones are intended to monitor the growing civilian and military activities in the Arctic and North Atlantic, areas increasingly significant due to the melting Arctic ice sheet, which has sparked a global competition for resources and strategic routes. Denmark, responsible for the defence of Greenland and the Faroe Islands, sees this investment as crucial for maintaining security in these regions.
