📰 Full Breakdown

📡 DARPA Moves on Next-Gen EW Test Range for Realistic RF Battles Read More

  • RF battlespace emulator aims to replicate jamming, spoofing, deception, and clutter, accelerating EW tactics development across services.

  • Program targets rapid scenario scripting, hardware-in-the-loop testing, and scalable range realism for joint forces, with adversary models.

  • Deliverables include modular emitters, open interfaces, and analytics to shorten kill chains under contested spectrum and improve debriefs.

🎯 Lockheed Wins $4.23B to Ramp GMLRS Precision Rocket Production Read More

  • Lockheed’s $4.23B award sustains GMLRS production, rebuilding stocks after high usage and aligning block upgrades with allies and FMS demand.

  • Contract covers rocket motors, guidance kits, and test assets to expand throughput, stabilize suppliers, and protect schedule resilience.

  • Fielding bolsters precision fires for HIMARS and MLRS launchers, extending reach, lethality, and multi-domain effects across theaters.

🤖 U.S. Submarine Force Steps Up Uncrewed Underwater Vehicle Ops Read More

  • Submarine Force is scaling UUV operations for ISR, MCM, strike support, and seabed warfare, integrating payloads across SSNs and SSGNs.

  • Focus areas include pier-launched, dry-deck, and VPM concepts, longer endurance, safer recovery, and resilient comms in cluttered littorals.

  • Fleet experiments will refine tasking, autonomy handoffs, and undersea C2, accelerating TTPs for distributed maritime operations and kill webs.

♟️ Air Force Seeks AI Wargaming SaaS in New RFI Read More

  • Air Force RFI seeks AI wargaming SaaS to auto-generate scenarios, adversary moves, and analytics for faster concept and campaign assessment.

  • Platform should fuse classified and open data, support red-blue models, and enable repeatable experiments with transparent explanations.

  • Goals include reducing manual adjudication, improving traceability of outcomes, and exporting insights to planners, operators, and labs.

🚀 Taiwan Advances Long-Range ‘Carrier-Killer’ Anti-Ship Missile Read More

  • Taiwan advances long-range anti-ship missile aimed at countering carrier groups, aligning with asymmetric sea denial and deterrence.

  • Program emphasizes mobile launchers, survivable C2, and targeting networks that fuse ISR from drones, radars, and allied maritime sensors.

  • Focus is on range, terminal guidance resilience, and multi-axis salvos to complicate defenses and raise costs for blockade or invasion.
