The unmistakable V-formation geese adopt in flight is more than a cool aerial trick. The entire flock benefits from upward air flowing off the lead bird's wings, whose fellow fliers then get to save energy, especially on long journeys.

Raven Tech's system combines detection, autonomous flight, and net-based capture to neutralize unauthorized drones. Once an intruder is detected, the system deploys a drone to intercept and safely transport the rogue drone to a designated location.

Britain is set to buy interceptors known as Skyhammer from Cambridge Aerospace, with the first deliveries expected as early as May - astonishingly fast compared with typical UK defense procurements.

"Together we will integrate physical AI into manned and unmanned shipbuilding and further accelerate the industrial revitalization already underway," Eric Chewning stated.

Joby Aviation and Air Space Intelligence announced a partnership to integrate AI-driven airspace management into U.S. electric air taxi operations, using ASI's Flyways AI platform to model high-density eVTOL traffic before commercial flights begin later this year.

Oshawa has the capacity to build, move and ship heavy gear all in one loop due to facilities like the Port of Oshawa and the GM Oshawa plant.

The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has threatened to strike 18 US technology and defense-related companies operating in the Middle East, including GE, which has contributed to a bearish sentiment among investors.

Methane is better suited for reusable engines because they leave less behind sooty residue than kerosene, which SpaceX uses on the Falcon 9 rocket.

Ukrspecsystems' new factory is a vote of confidence in UK support and underlines the deepening cooperation between our nations' defence industries. This investment will create up to 500 new jobs in the East of England, drive defence as an engine for growth, and help Ukraine defend itself against Putin's aggression.

As a leading global aerospace company, Boeing develops, manufactures and services commercial airplanes, defense products and space systems for customers in more than 150 countries. As a top U.S. exporter, the company leverages the talents of a global supplier base to advance economic opportunity, sustainability and community impact. Boeing's team is committed to innovating for the future, leading with sustainability, and cultivating a culture based on the company's core values of safety, quality and integrity.

"We were completely controlling the drone from the helicopter. For us, it's of course unique. Today, what we performed is a world first," Gerin-Roze told reporters on Thursday at the Singapore Airshow. The software is part of Airbus' contribution to the surging industry for drone wingmen, which the world's biggest aircraft manufacturers are betting will be the future of air warfare.

Truist's upgrade centers on two key arguments. First, the firm believes that the improving program mix and further progress on development contracts lends more confidence that estimate-at-completion charges should potentially moderate in coming periods - a direct response to the EAC adjustments that have repeatedly pressured margins. Second, new CFO Chris Edmunds has set low and achievable targets for 2026, which frames the guidance range of $450 million to $500 million in revenue as a floor rather than a stretch.

This flight test showcases the potential of airpower built on mission autonomy. Across platforms, domains, and environments, Hivemind provides resilient mission autonomy, proving that software is central to the future of airpower. Our collaboration with Anduril reflects a new era of defense acquisition, where autonomy is treated as a foundational warfighting capability on par with the aircraft itself.

Facing an existential crisis, the Ukrainians had to develop a way to counter hostile forces cheaply yet with mass. That meant figuring out how to turn inexpensive drones into weaponry, a step that quickly and fundamentally changed how the war was being fought. Now, drones carry out 80% of all battlefield hits and are responsible for most combat casualties.

Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT)'s $170 million Air Force cloud contract signals the massive defense modernization wave reshaping Pentagon technology buying. While Microsoft grabs headlines, the real winners are companies building hardware that protects American interests: fighter jets, missile systems, submarines, and bombers. These aren't software plays - they're steel, titanium, and composite fiber companies with decade-long backlogs and bipartisan budget support. We ranked the top five defense and aerospace stocks based on profitability margins, operational efficiency, balance sheet strength, and positioning in the defense modernization cycle.

There's just so much to do. So, the advances that we've gotten over the last five to ten years have been spectacular. We love the tools. We use them every day. But the question is, is this the whole universe of things that needs to happen? And we thought about it very carefully and our answer was no, there's a lot more to do.

David versus Goliath stories captivate us, especially when David brings a slingshot that looks like alien technology. Enter Stavatti Aerospace, a 25-person firm from Niagara Falls taking on Boeing and Northrop Grumman for one of the most lucrative defense contracts in naval aviation. Their weapon of choice? The SM-39 Razor, a fighter design so visually striking it demands a double-take. The triple-fuselage "Batwing" configuration breaks from a century of conventional aircraft architecture, presenting a form that's more science fiction than traditional aerospace engineering.

Entrants will be required to write three- to five-page white papers that explain their idea and how they would shape markets and strengthen the space economy or national security. Papers are due by June 30, and judging will be complete by August 15. As an additional incentive, the best ideas will be briefed to relevant policymakers, including key members of Congress, NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman, and Saltzman, of the Space Force.
