  • Belgium’s H145M fleet begins to take shape

    Belgium has received its first Airbus H145M from Donauwörth site. The 20-aircraft programme links military and police modernisation with European rotorcraft production and sustainment demand.


  • CF3D takes aim at missile manufacturing pressure

    Continuous Composites is now testing additive production for missile structures. The US Army effort targets throughput, yield, producibility, and resilient supply for precision-strike components.


  • Lockheed’s hypersonic glide body puts scale first

    Lockheed Martin is now moving hypersonics closer to production discipline. NXGB has completed preliminary design review, with affordability, scalability, and multi-platform launch central to its development path.


  • Germany rebuilds the machinery behind armoured readiness

    Germany is rebuilding recovery capacity behind its heavy armour fleet. Rheinmetall’s Büffel order reinforces the industrial value of support platforms, obsolescence clearance, and armoured sustainment.


  • Germany’s frigate reset hands momentum to MEKO

    Germany’s frigate reset moves naval production toward MEKO delivery route. The decision reshapes shipbuilding expectations around cost, schedule, ASW capacity, and German industrial workshare.


  • Ball bearings put steel policy into defence focus

    Ball bearings have now entered Britain’s defence supply-chain debate sharply. Their production links steel policy to missiles, aircraft, naval gearboxes, armoured vehicles, radar systems, and turret stabilisation.


  • Germany’s frigate reset hands momentum to MEKO

    Type 83 remains an early concept with limited design spend. Britain’s future destroyer will require clearer industrial shape around ship design, sensors, weapons, power, and production capacity.


  • Philippines receives Triton drones for maritime watch

    Triton vessels give Manila another layer of unmanned maritime awareness. The Ocean Aero systems support persistent monitoring while adding dual-domain autonomy to Philippine naval capability.


  • Germany’s frigate reset hands momentum to MEKO

    India has commissioned three domestically built naval platforms in Kolkata. The milestone spans frigate construction, hydrographic survey capability, shallow-water ASW, and a broad Indian supplier base.


  • India looks to put stealth drones at sea

    India is pushing naval autonomy into carrier aviation planning work. A carrier-capable UCAV would stretch stealth manufacturing, deck integration, datalinks, propulsion, and sustainment at sea.
