🇵🇰🇺🇸👀 For more than 70 years, the world has avoided nuclear war. However, the nuclear order is changing dramatically. Pakistan’s growing nuclear capabilities and ties to terrorist groups present an especially dangerous combination that the US cannot afford to overlook, Temor N. argues. Washington should establish a Joint US-Pakistan Counterterrorism Task Force to secure Pakistan’s nuclear assets. #military #army #defense #defence #us #unitedstates #pakistan #terrorism #nucleararms #nuclearweapons

🚁🇺🇸🦾 Sikorsky is all set to install its ALIAS/MATRIX flight autonomy system on the US Army’s experimental fly-by-wire Black Hawk. The upgrade will allow U.S. Army DEVCOM to test and evaluate autonomous capabilities, ranging from single pilot operation to fully unmanned flight. “Autonomy-enabled aircraft will reduce pilot workload, dramatically improve flight safety, and give battle commanders the flexibility to perform complex missions in contested and congested battlespace, day or night in all weather conditions,” Sikorsky VP Richard Benton said. #military #army #defense #defence #defenseindustry #defenceindustry #defensetech #defencetech #militarytech #technology #innovation #usarmy #sikorsky #helicopter #helicopters #unmanned #aerospace #blackhawk

⚡️⚔️ Leonardo Electronics has introduced an innovative electronic warfare solution capable of operating deep within enemy territory using drones. Called “BriteStorm,” the drone payload is engineered to degrade hostile air defenses through high-powered interference or “stand-in jamming” capabilities. Deployed ahead of the main force, it suppresses the enemy’s ability to detect and lock onto targets, thereby allowing friendly assets to carry out their missions more effectively. #military #army #defense #defence #defenseindustry #defenceindustry #defensetech #defencetech #militarytech #technology #innovation #leonardo #electronicwarfare #ew #drone #drones #BriteStorm #AUSA2024
