Australia has connected Aegis software, radar, and launch hardware ashore. The prototype joins sovereign sensors with an established combat system architecture.
Lithuania is building domestic Leopard assembly and maintenance capacity rapidly. YIT will deliver a €30 million facility in Kaunas for Lithuania Defence Services, with completion planned during November 2027.
Frankenburg selects British warhead and propulsion partners for Mark I. BAE Systems and Roxel UK will provide two tightly controlled elements within the compact counter-drone interceptor as it moves towards qualification and production.
Taiwan will rehearse moving weapons production before factories are struck. The exercise will test whether civilian industry can sustain controlled assembly while communications, power, transport, and military production sites face disruption.
L3Harris will nearly triple American PAC-3 MSE propulsion production capacity. A seven-year framework will support new processing bays, automated inspection, supplier investment, and workforce growth across one of the missile sector’s tightest industrial constraints.
Germany has ordered 56 additional Rheinmetall Elefant 2 heavy transporters. The programme expands the machinery needed to move increasingly heavy armoured vehicles while sustaining European production of driveline, recovery, braking, and trailer systems.
Babcock and Supacat have joined Britain’s emerging light-mobility vehicle competition. Their Land Cruiser-based proposal combines a mature commercial platform with UK conversion, mission-system integration, configuration control, and long-term fleet support.
Tekever’s AR5 will replace Watchkeeper in future British Army service. Project Corvus will test whether UK drone production can combine composite airframes, modular payloads, secure software, certification, and responsive fleet support at military scale.
BAE Systems is exploring Indian production for its Tridon Mk2. Any programme would combine vehicle integration, programmable 40mm ammunition, sensors, fire control, and long-term support within India’s expanding counter-drone industrial base.
India has ordered a longer-range Sureshastra loitering munition for production. The programme extends domestic precision-strike manufacturing towards 300km-class operations, with propulsion, navigation resilience, and repeatable assembly shaping its route to scale.
