“From information we have from Ukraine we can say that maybe every two weeks new changes are identified on the battlefield,” according to Cristian Coman, Senior Scientist, NATO Communications and Information Agency. Industry does not have the capacity to meet massive production orders, he said. “So through the defence investment processes we have in NATO we are trying to make sure the industry is ready if the need is there to provide the counter UAS capability to defend our countries.”
He was speaking at a joint counter-drone exercise which has taken place in Latvia, aimed at strengthening NATO’s defence readiness along the country’s borders.
Exercise Baltic Trust 25 was organised by the Latvian National Guard in partnership with the NATO Communications and Information Agency. Nearly 500 people attended from NATO member and partner countries alongside 100 representatives from industry.
Along with new counter-drone technology, the participants tried out new drones and Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR) systems.
