Russia's faster jet-powered drones are forcing Ukraine to rebuild its air defence in layers, while the Pentagon plans a four-star command for autonomous warfare.
This episode covers the Geran-4 and Geran-5 jet drones and Ukraine's response: Bars interceptor drones (reported hit rate of about 30 percent, with a planned joint production run of 2,000 units with Germany), automated gun turrets and small missiles. We follow up on the Army's Futures and Autonomous Systems Command with Defense Secretary Hegseth's planned Autonomous Warfare Command, targeted for October 1, 2027, and Project Agincourt. We look at AM General's Humvee-based unmanned ground vehicle that launches a Scorpio 1000 reconnaissance drone, plus PAC-3 Edge, Sikorsky's Nomad 100 container kit and the Infantry Squad Vehicle order growth. We also cover Ukraine's 3.7x rise in drone deliveries, EU funding, Germany's planned 600-soldier drone regiment, and Ukrainian strikes on Russia's Rubikon drone unit and launch sites.
