Array Labs has raised $20M in Series A funding to scale mass-manufactured, high-power radar systems and advance toward launching its first formation-flying radar satellite cluster. By fusing consumer electronics, AI, and advanced signal processing, the company aims to radically lower radar costs while delivering unmatched performance for defense and commercial markets.

Space Machines Company has secured a $2.9M Australian Defence contract to develop STARS, an AI-powered autonomous space threat detection system. Designed to predict close flybys, RPO activity, and interference in LEO, STARS will enhance protection of Australian and allied space assets and integrate into next-generation space command-and-control systems.

Terran Orbital has been selected by Lockheed Martin to supply satellite buses for SDA’s Tranche 3 Tracking Layer, supporting a proliferated low Earth orbit constellation designed to detect and track advanced missile threats, including hypersonic weapons. The award extends Terran Orbital’s multi-tranche collaboration on the PWSA Tracking Layer.

At the intersection of cinema, intelligence, and geopolitics, DHURANDHAR signals a shift in how India tells its security stories. This article, inspired by an Access Hub podcast conversation with the film’s military consultant, explores realism, cultural diplomacy, and why such narratives matter globally.

The Karachi Agreement of 1949 is often misunderstood as a political settlement on Kashmir. In reality, it was a technical military arrangement designed to stabilize a fragile ceasefire by mapping a supervised line on the ground. Understanding its limited purpose is key to explaining how the conflict shifted from open warfare to managed confrontation, without resolution.

When Stand News shut down in 2021, arrests and raids dominated headlines. Less noticed was what vanished next: years of reporting erased from public access. The loss of its archive reshaped journalism in Hong Kong, thinning the historical record and narrowing space for accountability, an absence that still matters today.

The 2021 police raid on Stand News did more than shut down one newsroom; it quietly transformed how journalism works in Hong Kong. Years later, reporters describe a profession reshaped by uncertainty, where caution replaces confrontation, and self-restraint emerges without formal censorship.

Despite announcing February 12, 2026, as its next election date, Bangladesh has failed to restore public confidence. Ongoing unrest, contested reforms, questions over the Election Commission’s neutrality, and the exclusion of major political actors reveal that legitimacy depends not on dates, but on trust, inclusion, and credible institutions.

Synspective has been selected as a partner in Japan’s Ministry of Defense satellite constellation project, supporting a private-sector–led initiative to deliver persistent ISR capabilities. The program brings together leading Japanese aerospace and satellite firms to strengthen national security through advanced space-based imagery.

Bangladesh’s reconstituted Election Commission was presented as a reset after Sheikh Hasina’s ouster. Six months on, critics say it has become an extension of interim power—delaying elections, echoing government positions, and excluding the Awami League, raising serious questions about independence, legitimacy, and the future of democratic rule.

Orbit Communication Systems has secured a $2.4 million order from a leading European defense integrator to supply OceanTRx4 MIL SATCOM systems for a NATO navy. The advanced maritime systems will deliver resilient, multi-band satellite connectivity for military naval platforms, with deliveries starting in 2026.

Acuative has officially achieved CMMC Level 2 Certification and this reinforces commitment to providing defense-grade cybersecurity for the Department of Defense and its partners. By meeting all 110 NIST security controls with zero deficiencies, Acuative is now uniquely positioned to help the Defense Industrial Base (DIB) protect sensitive data and modernize infrastructure with confidence.

Boeing has officially secured a $4.7 billion contract to build 96 AH-64E Apache helicopters for Poland. This historic deal makes Poland the largest Apache operator outside of the U.S. and the 19th nation to join the global Apache network. With deliveries starting in 2028 and local industry taking a lead role in maintenance, this partnership marks a major leap in European defense.

COVID-19 became a global disaster not just because a virus emerged, but because China’s political system criminalized early warning. In Wuhan, doctors were silenced, data was controlled, and truth required permission. This was not chaos, it was governance by design, and its consequences spread worldwide.

As Bangladesh navigates political uncertainty, claims of “neutral leadership” face a critical test. This article examines how unresolved labor, financial, and regulatory cases surrounding Muhammad Yunus complicate assertions of moral authority, highlighting why legal clarity, not global reputation, ultimately determines credibility in democratic governance.

The Tk 252 crore welfare fund dispute has emerged as Bangladesh’s clearest accountability test. At its core is not ideology or reputation, but workers’ money, deducted from wages and allegedly not returned. For affected families, justice is measured not in narratives, but in restitution.

Microcredit promised empowerment in rural Bangladesh but often delivered discipline through debt. Rigid repayments, social pressure, and survival borrowing reshaped household power, intensified stress, and produced regional spillovers, revealing how development finance can enforce control rather than create opportunity.

External influence is often mistaken for direct control. In Bangladesh’s political churn, Pakistan’s role, where it exists, operates through aligned networks, shared narratives, and ideological convergence rather than command and coordination. Understanding this distinction is critical to crafting effective, resilient policy responses.

The India–Pakistan rivalry has transitioned into a hybrid engagement model where traditional espionage is superseded by multi-domain operations. This shift targets critical infrastructure and societal cohesion, utilizing "grey zone" tactics to bypass conventional nuclear deterrence. By analyzing the convergence of cyber-sabotage, weaponized disinformation, and proxy attribution, this piece evaluates the risk of strategic miscalculation and proposes a framework for regional st

The Space Development Agency has awarded $3.5 billion to build 72 Tracking Layer satellites under Tranche 3 of the Proliferated Warfighter Space Architecture. Launching in 2029, the constellation will deliver near-continuous global missile warning, tracking, and fire-control quality data to counter advanced and hypersonic threats.
