Pentagon's Drone Push Sparks Industry Divide Over Sustained Demand Signal

The drone industry is holding its breath, waiting for the Pentagon's promising signals to translate into sustained demand - and until then, manufacturers are hesitant to invest in production lines. The Army is trying to jumpstart this demand, with its efforts to artificially induce a sense of security among suppliers.

Exclusive: Coordinated airstrikes on territory held by al-Shabaab are driving the civilian population to find refuge alongside a river where rising water levels are a threat to safety. Is it a deliberate military strategy?

Based on reports from various sources and news outlets, as well as images released over the past week, it appears that the United States has deployed a full battery of the Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) anti-ballistic missile system at its Fifth Fleet naval base in Bahrain. This configuration includes an AN/TPY-2 early-warning and tracking radar, six to eight eight-cell launchers—with a total capacity of 48 to 64 interceptor missiles—along with an additional 128 interceptor missiles.

Pentagon's Autonomous Warfare Command Faces Funding Hurdles

The Pentagon's ambitious plan to launch the Autonomous Warfare Command is hitting a roadblock: funding. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth's bold vision to create a new combatant command within a year is facing harsh skepticism from experts, with one retired general bluntly stating that no one knows how to build such a complex system.

WTAF: 🇺🇸😱🐕Americans are genetically modifying dogs for the military

Anduril founder Palmer Luckey and entrepreneur Ben Lamm have launched a startup called Warhound, which plans to clone top-performing dogs and modify their genes to improve their health, stamina, and sense of smell.

The animals are also expected to be equipped with armor and electronics. The project has already raised $200 million at a $1.2 billion valuation, the Financial Times reports.

US Weighs Fresh Strikes on Iran

Tensions are escalating, with US Ambassador to Turkey Tom Barrack hinting at a potential strike on Iran as early as the weekend. The White House is keeping diplomatic and military options open, but President Trump's response to Barrack's comment was a cryptic one.

Truly incredible how much Pete Hegseth has destroyed the US Military's morale and is pushing them to the point of mutiny.

Abandoned families, traumatised children, it's reminds me of when the European empires were collapsing and the Colonials felt betrayed.
