Rolls-Royce and Reliance plan an indigenous engine partnership for AMCA. The proposal spans Indian design, development, manufacturing, testing, production, and through-life support.

Lockheed Martin will manufacture new THAAD launchers for the UAE. The $211.4 million FMS modification runs through January 2031 and lifts the underlying contract above $1 billion.

GA-ATS has added TRAKKA multispectral imaging to Do228 NXT aircraft. The partnership creates an integrated TC-375 option for surveillance, reconnaissance, and other special-mission configurations.

Saab demonstrated distributed radar operation without relying on GPS timing. The UK trial paired Giraffe 1X radars with AQlock quantum timing sources under simulated spoofing and denial.

Hyundai Rotem and KAI will integrate future aviation weapons jointly. Work covers KF-21 integration, long-range air-to-air missiles, and packaged export opportunities.

SciTec has won a $93.7 million Space Force radar contract. The programme will create a common digital architecture for modernising ageing ground-based radar infrastructure.

Collins Aerospace has secured a major Chinook avionics support contract. The $472 million ceiling covers engineering, obsolescence management, modernisation, and more reusable avionics architectures.

Boeing has advanced a low-cost seeker through rapid flight testing. The modular radar design uses adapted commercial components and is intended for multiple offensive and defensive weapon families.

Britain and Australia are advancing joint AESA radar cooperation plans. QinetiQ and CEA Technologies will explore UK integration, testing, assurance, and industrial participation.

Lockheed Martin is funding a new modular hypersonic payload architecture. MPDS is intended to reuse proven missile-body technology across offensive and defensive missions while reducing integration effort and production complexity.
