Small Tactical Drones in European Defense: Why Speed, Scale, and Sustainment Matter
Small tactical drones are changing European defense requirements beyond speed, range, and payload. Using the Omni3D Mosquito 1000 and Mosquito 1600 as examples, this article examines why scalable production, secure digital workflows, fleet replacement, and forward-deployed manufacturing are essential to maintaining operational capability.
