The United Kingdom has launched the development of a range of ‘smart' missile systems under the Co-operative Strike Weapons Technology Demonstrator (CSWTD) programme.

U.S. Marines and engineers are evaluating a light robotic vehicle, also known as the Expeditionary Modular Autonomous Vehicle (EMAV).

In January 2001, a Predator launched an inert Hellfire missile at a dummy tank, marking the first successful missile test from a drone. Twenty years on, drones have become a feature of warfare to an extent that few at the time likely could have imagined. Over 100 militaries have some level of armed or unarmed drone capability, and a growing number have experience using these systems in combat. The notion of what an armed drone looks like and how it should perform has also shifted as the families of drones and drone munitions have become lighter and more diverse. This is fueling a wider adoption of these systems, potentially complicating the United States’ ability to develop effective countermeasures.

Artificial Intelligence has been used by the British Army for the first time during a live-firing drill in Estonia

The U.K. Ministry of Defense has revealed that it is looking at unmanned self-propelled guns, which could have autonomous capabilities, as potential replacements for the British Army’s current L118 105mm howitzer. An artist’s conception of one proposal for this future Lightweight Fires Platform, seen at the top of this story, shows a design with four wheels on separate, articulating legs.

The Air Force conducted a second flight test of the robot pilot known as Skyborg, which autonomously flew a General Atomics MQ-20 Avenger drone June 24.

President of the Presidency of Defence Industries Prof. Dr. İsmail Demir, in his share on his official Twitter account, announced that the prototype racing activities initiated within the context of the Middle-Class 1st Level Unmanned Ground Vehicle (UGV) Project go on. In the post on 27 June 2021, it was reported that after the inspection and mobility tests of the UGVs developed by Turkish Defense Industry companies to enter the Turkish Armed Forces inventory, firing tests with the 7.62 mm weapon system were also carried out.

As part of its rotating presidency of the United Nations Security Council, Estonia will hold the first-ever formal meeting on cyber security on Tuesday, June 29.

The European Union wants to launch a new cyber unit to respond to cyberattacks, according to a draft of the plan seen by "Politico".
