Israel sets up new department to boost development of AI and autonomy
Israel will continue to develop autonomy for its weapons and platforms as it brings together defence personnel, academia and industry.
L3Harris Technologies has been named on the US Army’s R4 Electronic and Cyber Warfare IDIQ contract.
The R4 programme aims to develop and maintain the army’s lethality in non-kinetic engagements by employing cyber-electromagnetic activities (CEMA) effects in multi-domain operations. The programme includes the delivery of new cyber and CEMA capabilities as well as the upgrade of existing systems including training, documentation and support.
L3Harris Technologies will compete for task orders for the programme.
Ed Zoiss, president, L3Harris Space and Airborne Systems, said: ‘L3Harris brings enhanced and integrated C4ISR and spectrum dominance solutions to the market. R4 provides a strategic contract vehicle for L3Harris to provide state-of-the-art cyber solutions that meet the army’s present and future needs.’

Clavister CyberArmour, an integrated defence cybersecurity system, will be used on BAE Systems Hägglunds’ CV90 platform in deployments with a Scandinavian country, as well as in an eastern European nation.
The tactical satellite (TacSat) is an intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) system and will participate in exercises in 2025.
The airborne three-domain, the two ground-based and the ¼ ATR OpenVPX-based cross-domain systems were engineered to provide real-time security across multi-domain operations.
DARPA’s Mission-Integrated Network Control (MINC) programme was set up to develop an autonomous tactical network and enable critical data flow in contested environments.
