A decades-old concept for a ubiquitous battlefield network concept is starting to become reality.

A U.S./Israel team plans to propose the Skyceptor air defense system for Australia’s medium-range surface-to-air missile program.

A new container launcher will be developed for the Saab/Boeing Ground Launched Small Diameter Bomb system that the U.S. government approved for Ukraine.

Australia can buy up to 63 Northrop Grumman-built, long-range anti-radiation missiles worth up to $506 million, the U.S. government announced on Feb. 27.

Sweden will help bolster Ukraine’s air defenses with deliveries of components for the Hawk missile system and the surface-launched IRIS-T air defense system.

Two new long-range weapon prototypes are still on schedule to be delivered to U.S. Army soldiers this year.

Under new leadership and with increased scrutiny, the U.S. Air Force wants to make ABMS operational with new awards and a different approach to testing.

Ukraine is not likely to see many of the high-end air defense systems the West has pledged for several months to years.
