12 Nov 25. Elbit Systems UK (ESUK), a Bristol based defence technology company, has delivered the first Ground Based Surveillance Radar (GBSR) systems to the Royal Artillery following successful live fire trials earlier this year. The delivery of these 55 units, and associated support solutions, means that ESUK has achieved the first tranche of equipment deliveries. GBSR is a portable radar system that operates in two primary roles: Surveillance and Fall of Shot (FoS) correction. When used for Surveillance, the system can track and classify personnel, vehicles, helicopters and drones – providing troops with an accurate picture of allied movement and an early warning on incoming threats. For FoS correction, GBSR provides mortar and artillery teams with rapid fires adjustments by detecting and locating rounds with a high level of accuracy – increasing the effectiveness and lethality of fires teams.

11 Nov 25. Anduril Selected for US Army’s Integrated Battle Command System Maneuver Program. Modern battlefields are defined by speed and saturation. Small unmanned aircraft systems can swarm by the hundreds, overwhelming defenses and striking before human decision loops close. Without effective counter-UAS systems, air defense operators face more targets than they can track or defeat, leaving U.S. forces vulnerable. Current command and control systems weren’t built for this fight — they can’t process data or execute kill-chain decisions at the speed required to stop autonomous, distributed attacks. To meet this challenge, the Army has selected Anduril Industries for the Integrated Battle Command System Maneuver (IBCS-M) program, establishing Lattice as the Army’s next-generation fire control platform for Counter-UAS missions. IBCS-M provides the command, control, and integration backbone for a vast array of counter-drone systems, enabling a single operator to manage multiple threats simultaneously. It fuses sensor data, automates fire control, and integrates new capabilities, reducing operator load and compressing the time from detection to defeat. At a recent demonstration at Yuma Proving Grounds, Anduril showcased the power of Lattice — the foundation of IBCS-M. In a seven-day trial, Lattice integrated a previously undisclosed sensor and effector within hours, executed live-fire intercepts that achieved four out of four kills, and demonstrated advanced features like autonomy-enhanced fire control, distributed tracking, and kill-chain optimization.

07 Nov 25. Zen Technologies – Cuashub.com said today that India awards $32.5m to upgrade indigenous counter-drone systems. India has awarded contracts worth 2.89bn rupees (about $32.5 m) to Hyderabad-based Zen Technologies to upgrade its counter-drone systems. The upgrades are expected to be completed within a year and are based on operational lessons drawn from recent frontline engagements, including Operation Sindoor. The upgrade effort focuses on improving both the hardware and software resilience of India’s existing anti-drone systems. According to Zen Technologies, the aim is to strengthen defenses against two growing threat areas: physical compromise of system components and software-level attacks, such as malware infiltration. India’s defense establishment has increasingly highlighted cyber vulnerabilities in air defense networks, citing incidents such as Stuxnet and the 2024 pager attacks in Lebanon, which demonstrated the strategic risks of supply chain and software compromise. A key factor in the decision to rely on local systems rather than imported technology is adaptability. Indian officials have expressed concerns that foreign suppliers cannot always share full software access or system modification rights due to export controls and vendor restrictions, limitations that could hinder battlefield updates. https://cuashub.com/en/content/india-awards-32-5m-to-upgrade-indigenous-counter-drone-systems/ (Source: https://cuashub.com/
