About this listen

In this episode of Defence Insight Briefs, Senior UAV Analyst Matty Todhunter examines the rapidly evolving global drone market. From the battlefield roles of loyal wingman UAVs to NATO procurement strategies, we explore how drones are transforming modern warfare.

Matty discusses how the Ukraine conflict has turbocharged drone development and procurement, with global UAV spending expected to reach $8.2 billion in 2025. Key topics include the US Department of Defense’s Replicator 1 programme, India’s major MQ-9B acquisition, and Europe’s emerging loyal wingman initiatives.

Tune in to hear insights into the latest technological innovations, including autonomous control systems and low-cost, attritable platforms, and how drones are poised to redefine defence strategies in the year ahead.
