June Issue 2026

This issue serves as our dedicated Eurosatory special edition and includes a comprehensive overview of everything you need to know about the event. Working closely with the organisers and official partners, we have brought together exclusive content, key insights and practical information to help visitors make the most of their time at the show. Whether you are attending to evaluate emerging technologies, strengthen existing relationships or identify future opportunities, our dedicated Eurosatory section has been designed as your guide to one of the defence industry’s most influential gatherings. 

Beyond our extensive event coverage, this issue explores many of the technologies and strategic challenges currently shaping defence procurement and operational capability. 

Our Big Interview sees Brian Vogt, Section Head at NATO Allied Command Transformation, discuss artificial intelligence adoption, trust in emerging technologies and NATO’s next generation modelling and simulation programme. His observations provide valuable insight into how military organisations are preparing for increasingly complex future operating environments. 

Innovation also remains firmly in focus as Darren Fisher of Honeywell Aerospace joins us to discuss the growing importance of inertial sensing technologies and navigation in GNSS denied environments. 

Elsewhere in this issue, we examine the evolution of land-based precision fires, the growing role of artificial intelligence in defence networks, the development of autonomous naval vessels, and how airborne ISR is becoming an increasingly networked discipline. We also look beyond the traditional battlespace to explore the critical role military satellites now play in supporting modern operations, while our Test and Evaluation feature considers why defence is no longer struggling to test equipment, but increasingly challenged to test assumptions.
