US Defense Secretary Hegseth emphasized the issue of automation at AUSA 2026.
The Hellenic Navy is testing US-origin Corsair autonomous unmanned surface vehicles (USVs) and has made an official request for the procurement of at least 30 platforms.
HMS Dauntless, a Royal Navy Type 45 guided-missile destroyer, was spotted equipped with new-generation vertical launch systems and ammunition containers developed against drone threats.
Reducing U.S. support for programs that monitor and counter foreign influence operations is increasing national security vulnerabilities and critical infrastructure weaknesses before upcoming midterm elections.
U.S. Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth and the service secretaries laid out the strategic vision for the Autonomous Warfare Command (AUTOWARCOM), scheduled to become operational in 2027, and the generational shift in military bureaucracy at a summit in Washington.
Top U.S. commanders in Korea aim to expand the geographic scope and increase the frequency of military exercises, drawing on field experiences from the war in Ukraine.
