'Cyberspace creates opportunities for mid-tier states. Rather than attempting to replicate the capabilities of major cyber powers they can exploit the distinctive logic of cyberspace and cooperation with civilian partners.' write Dr Peter B.M.J Pijpers and Dr Jelle van Haaster 2.2K views · 14 likes · 3 reposts · 0 replies Open on X →

@RUSI_org @NATO Batteries are UN3480, Class 9: cargo aircraft only, 30% state of charge max by air. The reshoring debate skips the DG piece entirely. Moving cells at scale is its own industrial skill. 29 views · 0 likes · 0 reposts · 0 replies Open on X →

@RUSI_org @NATO The Western model of autonomous attritional warfare pits an atrophied and archaic industrial base against the largest industrial power on Earth.

@RUSI_org @MilAvHistory @BAESystemsplc CCAs face a brutal SWaP wall. If Brontonax relies on legacy batteries for EW and sensors, parasitic mass kills its combat radius.

@RUSI_org @MilAvHistory @BAESystemsplc After a decade in trade, I know this: prototypes don't win export orders. Brontonax looks capable, but without faster MoD clearance and allied partners, we're building another domestic-only platform. 8 views · 0 likes · 0 reposts · 0 replies Open on X →
