Great insight about the Joint Counter-small Unmanned Aircraft Systems Office (JCO) on the significance of comprehensive testing for all UAS, not just Army-centric. Testing slated for next year will offer a holistic view of the situation and aid in effectively tackling various challenges. However, testing should be this year so we can enable the delivery of proven C-UAS to our Warfighters sooner. #UAS #Testing #JCO

#warfare is changing at the speed of innovation. I wrote about this scenario in my book on #cyberwarfare a few years ago. Here we are. #drones and #cyber level the playing field. I think the next "job" that is in real danger of being affected by #technology is fighter pilots (lots of armed drones mean less need for expensive risky planes and risking a pilots life for an incursion). Buckle up y'all the face of the future is very uncertain. https://lnkd.in/dwQCwKDf

Adapt or Lose: Drone Training is the New Battlefield Necessity Modern warfare isn’t about brute strength—it’s about adaptability. Drones aren't just tools; they're game-changers. Recent conflicts show that soldiers with drone skills can outmaneuver traditional forces, shifting the balance of power. Drone training is no longer just for specialists; it’s a necessity for every soldier. The future of combat demands it—it’s the key to battlefield dominance. #ModernWarfare #DroneTraining #MilitaryInnovation #BattlefieldDominance #AdaptToWin #FutureOfCombat

"For the first time in our lifetime, the enemy has a weapon, and we have no real answer. We are in uncharted territory." — Steve Simoni, CEO of Allen Control Systems. In the face of advanced drone threats, we are addressing this critical challenge head-on. Our flagship product, Bullfrog, transforms existing military machine guns into precision autonomous weapon stations capable of defeating the most advanced drones.

Transforming war: A strategic integration of unmanned aerial systems By Florent Groberg Opinion: Medal of Honor recipient and AE Industrial Vice President Florent Groberg discusses how unmanned aerial systems are reshaping modern battlefield dynamics. Read More

This is profoundly disturbing on a human level ... As an objective look ahead to the future of war, it's highly instructive. History has shown that a small number of large, sophisticated weapons is no match for masses of smaller, inexpensive weapons. (Read up on the story of WWII's greatest battleship - the Bismarck, if you want an example). What the video shows is single drone being controlled by a pilot. The future is drone swarms that operate as a coordinated "entity" and do so autonomously even when disconnected from a controller. How would an aircraft carrier group fight off a thousand or more drones, communicating with each other and operating in a coordinated manner? (The Houthi's are firing one-off missiles from highly mobile launch platforms and we aren't exactly being successful degrading their capability). We have a lot of work to do ... As an aside, as a data security and control guy I am appalled by how easy it is to intercept signals - there is little, if any, defense against jamming and spoofing. That's another conversation. #ukraine #drones #dronewar #droneswarms

For example, it can be integrated with loitering munitions, loyal wingman drones, counter-drone systems, unmanned underwater vehicles (UUVs), and electronic warfare systems. Anduril acquired Area-I and integrated Lattice into Area-I’s Altius-600 and 700 loitering munitions. Similarly, it acquired Dive Technologies and Blue Force Technologies, and integrated Lattice into both the Dive-LD autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) and the Fury loyal wingman drone, respectively."
