I et nøtteskall: DARPAs Manta Ray-program er designet for å utvikle en ny generasjon autonome droner som er i stand til å operere under vann. Dronen er endelig bygget etter omtrent fire år, og Northrop Grumman testet nylig prototypen utenfor kysten av Sør-California. Under Manta Ray-programmet hadde det amerikanske forskningsbyrået DARPA som mål å utvikle en helt ny klasse av ubemannede undervannsfarkoster (UUV), og hentet inspirasjon fra den massive "vingede" fisken med samme navn.

The United States on May 1 accused Russia of violating the international chemical weapons ban by deploying the choking agent chloropicrin against Ukrainian troops and using riot control agents "as a method of warfare" in Ukraine. "The use of such chemicals is not an isolated incident and is probably driven by Russian forces' desire to dislodge Ukrainian forces from fortified positions and achieve tactical gains on the battlefield," the State Department said in a statement.

WASHINGTON — Two weeks after the chief of the Pentagon's communication branch previewed his strategic goals for 2025-2030, the Defense Information Systems Agency has published the full five-year plan, entitled "DISA Next".

Robert Skinner lays out his three top priorities, three ambitious "DOD-wide, enterprise-level solutions" he wants DISA to build: a "common IT environment" to replace DoD's current jungle of disparate systems, a more robust cloud computing system and zero-trust cybersecurity in IT systems and the cloud.
