Hunting Shahed: Ukrainian drones receive a unique autonomous interception system

8 June 2026 at 16:47

A new technology developed by a member of the Brave1 cluster enables Ukrainian unmanned aerial systems to autonomously intercept enemy Shahed-type loitering munitions, marking a systematic increase in the country’s air defence capabilities. The innovative solution automates nearly the entire engagement cycle – approximately 95% of the process – starting from the interceptor’s launch and continuing through to the neutralisation […]

Four Russian satellites are now within striking distance of an ICEYE radarsat

22 May 2026 at 23:50

At least four Russian military satellites changed their orbits to match that of a Finnish-American radar surveillance satellite in the last week, raising questions about Russia's intentions amid an ever-expanding standoff high above Earth.

The maneuvers were identified through open source orbital tracking data. Greg Gillinger, a retired Air Force space intelligence officer, revealed the orbit changes Friday in a special edition of his Integrity Flash newsletter, published by Integrity ISR, a private business that provides "combat-proven operational support and elite training that enhances mission success across ISR (Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance), cyber, space, and targeting domains."

The Russian satellites in question, designated Kosmos 2610 through 2613, launched together on April 16 on a Soyuz-2.1b rocket from Plesetsk Cosmodrome in northern Russia. Over the last week or so, the four satellites adjusted their inclinations—the angles of their orbits to the equator—by less than a degree.
