Drones have rapidly evolved from playing a supporting role in military operations to becoming an essential component of modern warfare — and they are in high demand across the globe. Drones enable widespread real-time situational awareness, improved targeting, and the suppression and destruction of adversary air and missile defenses Co-authored by: Federico Borsari, a Leonardo Fellow at the Center for European Policy Analysis (CEPA) and a NATO 2030 global fellow and Gordon B. “Skip” Davis Jr. a non-resident senior fellow at CEPA who served as NATO’s deputy assistant secretary-general for defense investment. In this POLITICO article they are advocating (unsurpisingly) that, to ensure their own security, European governments need to start paying attention and learn from the use of drones in the Ukraine war and other recent conflicts, including Gaza. #nato #eu #drones #defense #defence #warfare Pravo Consulting Campaign Catapult

Good overview of Army’s ISR ambitions and integration with AI from a recent AFCEA International meeting: Andrew Evans of Army’s ISR Task Force suggests that artificial intelligence (AI) may apply to processing, exploitation and dissemination. “If you look at PED models today, they’re very human-centric and require an analyst looking at a lot of sensor data, and trying to make sense of all of it. I would think what you can find with AI and machine learning is that you can allow the machine to point the human towards what is most important, and we maybe see that in the world of automatic target recognition, so ATR algorithms. We might see it in the world of [signals intelligence], in terms of signal identification and decomposing signals to try to give the analyst something to look at.” Integrating AI onto sensors also is an option. “If you put AI algorithms on a sensor itself, you’re going to reduce the amount of data that you need to push back to somebody doing the analysis on that data. And that matters when you’re in environments where you have denied or intermittent or limited communications,” Evans explained. “Today, we sort of operate like vacuum cleaners, and we’ll suck down everything we can. But tomorrow in the next fight, we may have very limited bandwidth in which to pull it down.”
