France’s FLP-t 150 test advances sovereign long-range strike production, bringing together munition design, launcher architecture, propulsion, guidance resilience, and a domestic industrial chain intended to replace the country’s LRU capability.
-
Pakistan’s Fatah-3 adds a supersonic cruise missile layer to its conventional strike portfolio, raising production questions around ramjet propulsion, launcher integration, guidance resilience, and the domestic industrial capacity needed to sustain a deployable long-range weapons stockpile.
-
Estonia is expanding Chunmoo procurement as Baltic fires requirements deepen. The follow-on order from Hanwha Aerospace strengthens long-range strike capacity while sharpening Europe’s focus on delivery speed, missile production, and localised sustainment.
-
Viettel has widened Vietnam’s uncrewed systems portfolio at SAHA 2026. The new reconnaissance UAVs and loitering munition point to a maturing domestic production base for surveillance, targeting, electronic resilience, and tactical precision strike.
-
Saab has launched the HEAT 758 anti-tank round for the Carl-Gustaf weapon system, adding a tandem-warhead munition designed to defeat explosive reactive armour and already moving into production for an undisclosed customer.
-
STM has introduced Kuzgun, a long-range loitering munition designed for autonomous deep-strike missions, reflecting the rapid industrialisation of low-cost one-way attack drones and the growing demand for scalable strike systems below cruise-missile cost.
-
Türkiye has unveiled technical details of the Yıldırımhan long-range missile, including liquid-fuel propulsion and a 6,000km range specification, placing propulsion chemistry, strategic deterrence, and domestic missile production at the centre of Ankara’s defence-industrial ambitions.
-
The Pentagon is seeking AI-enhanced target recognition for close-in counter-drone systems, initially focused on remote weapon stations including CROWS. The effort links computer vision, sensor fusion, prototype testing, land and maritime firing, and future small-arms integration.
-
Switzerland is gathering information on additional long-range air-defence systems after delays to its Patriot order. The evaluation puts delivery time, cost, performance, European production share, and supplier resilience at the centre of Bern’s air-defence planning.
-
Rheinmetall is accelerating plans to produce cruise missiles with Destinus through a German-based joint venture. The move places scalable deep-strike manufacturing, propulsion, guidance, energetic materials, and production capacity at the centre of Europe’s rearmament drive.
