Though deployed in various conflicts in recent years, notably in Nagorno-Karabakh (2020) and Syria (since 2011), drones have taken on a new dimension since the war in Ukraine was initiated by Russia on February 24, 2022.
The use of drones in Ukraine represents a step change. Never before have so many drones been used in a military confrontation.
These range from the very small – such as the Black Hornet which has a wingspan of only 12 cm – to pretty large ones like Bayraktar TB2 with wingspans of about 12 meters.
Taking cue, the well-known German defense company, Rheinmetall has introduced an advanced system that rapidly deploys a powerful fleet of attack drones directly into the battlefield.
In this video, Defense Updates analyzes why Rheinmetall’s containerized Hero drone launching system has huge potential ?

The steep decline in the ruble, a currency often managed by Russian authorities due to its role as a key indicator of the country’s economic health, now leaves 1,000 rubles worth less than $10.
The collapse is partly driven by last week’s US Treasury sanctions, which prohibited Russia's third-largest lender, Gazprombank, and over 50 smaller banks from conducting energy-related transactions with US entities.
Fears regarding a sharp escalation of the war in Ukraine after the U.S. & UK allowed unrestricted use of ATACMS & storm Shadow have also stroked the ruble’s decline.
In this video, Defense Updates analyzes how unrestricted use has now enabled ATACMS & Storm Shadow to take full toll on Russia ?

The target was a key infrastructure - Pivdenmash, formerly Yuzhmash.
Pivdenmash produces spacecraft, launch vehicles (rockets), liquid-propellant rockets, landing gears, castings, forgings, tractors, tools, and industrial products. The company is headquartered in Dnipro and reports to the State Space Agency of Ukraine. It works with international aerospace partners in 23 countries.
The strike package included 6 Kh-101 cruise missiles, one Kinzhal hypersonic missile, and an unknown missile which was later designated as - Oreshnik.
A US official confirmed, “The United States was pre-notified briefly before the launch”. It was done since it could have been mistaken for a nuclear strike.
In this video, Defense Updates analyzes how lethal the Russian Oreshnik missile is?

The strike, carried out between November 9 and 10, 2024, involved the Marine Corps’ VMFA-314 squadron—also known as the “Black Knights”—stationed aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln supercarrier in the US Navy’s 5th Fleet Area of Responsibility (AOR).
The primary objective was to degrade Houthi capabilities, especially following a series of attacks on international commercial and military shipping by the Iran-backed militia. The Pentagon highlighted that these strikes aimed to prevent further unlawful targeting of vessels operating in these critical maritime zones.

Currently, only China, Russia, and the United States have this technology.
The Indian missile, developed by the state-run Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) and industry partners, is designed to carry payloads for ranges exceeding 1,500 km (930 miles) for the armed forces, the government said in a statement.
It is being termed a Long Range Anti Ship Hypersonic Missile (LRAShM) given the absence of any other known nomenclature for the missile family.
The government added, "The flight data ... confirmed the successful terminal maneuvers and impact with high degree of accuracy”.
The test-firing took place from Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam island off the eastern coast of Odisha state
Defence Minister Rajnath Singh called the test a "historic achievement" in a post on X and congratulated “DRDO, armed forces, and industry for stupendous achievement”.

,1,The US has reached a crucial milestone.
According to the Missile Defense Agency., the Defense Department’s advanced missile tracking satellites logged their first views of a hypersonic flight test.
Hypersonic and Ballistic Tracking Space Sensor (HBTSS) satellites were able to track a hypersonic system.
MDA didn’t disclose the date of the flight, which took off from Wallops Island in Virginia.
The agency said in a June 14 statement, “Initial reports show the sensors successfully collected data after launch. MDA will continue to assess flight data over the next several weeks.”
Viewers may note, that the Missile Defense Agency (MDA) and Space Development Agency (SDA) are actively working on components of a hypersonic missile defense system to protect against hypersonic weapons and other emerging missile threats. This includes developing the tracking and transport layers of the Proliferated Warfighter Space Architecture (PWSA) and various interceptor programs.

,1,Ecuador has been rocked by a series of violent attacks including the abduction of a number of police officers. Security forces are out in force on the streets.
The outbreak of violence followed the apparant escape from prison of a drug cartel leader on Sunday. Adolfo Macias, also known as 'Fito,' was serving a 34 year sentence for murder and narcotics trafficking.
Ecuadorian president Daniel Noboa says his country is in a state of 'internal armed conflict.' He's ordered the army to take military action against drugs gangs in the country.

,1,Conspiracy theorist Alex Jones let out a bizarre war cry and sobbed uncontrollably as he claimed the feds were trying to shutter his Infowars platform.
The 50-year-old host let the bellowing, 10-second scream rip after alleging — without evidence — that his site was under attack by federal authorities planning to raid his Austin, Texas, studio.
A wild clip of the moment during a so-called emergency broadcast showed Jones clenching both his fists and screaming until his face turned a dark shade of red.
Just seconds before, the host had declared, “It’s my resistance to them … as a human under attack.”

,1,The Ukrainian Air Force asserted that it successfully downed three Russian Su-34 Fullback fighter-bombers. If proven accurate, this incident would mark a noteworthy single-day setback for the Russian Air Force. Speculation, albeit unconfirmed, suggests that Patriot surface-to-air missiles of U.S. origin could be responsible for the downing.
Post on the official social media accounts of the Ukrainian Air Force announced the downing of three Su-34Ms. The Fullbacks were reported to have been shot down while flying "in the south direction." However, there was no disclosure regarding the specific weaponry employed in bringing them down.
President Volodymyr Zelenskyy commended the anti-aircraft unit in the Odesa region for successfully downing the Russian jets near Kherson.
Russian authorities have not officially acknowledged any of these losses. Nonetheless, the Russian-language Fighterbomber channel on Telegram, known for its strong connections to the country's air force, reported at least one "combat loss" with ongoing search and rescue operations.
As per some reports, one battery of Patriot was shifted to the region recently.
In this video, Defense Updates analyzes how a single Patriot battery has downed 3 Russian Su-34s in one day?
