NATO Opens Counter-Drone Testing Range in Latvia; Belgium Launches National C-UAS Programme

NATO's Joint Air Power Competence Centre (JAPCC) activated a dedicated counter-UAS testing range at Lielvฤrde Air Base, Latvia — the alliance's first permanent C-UAS evaluation facility on NATO's eastern flank. The Latvian site is designed to test C-UAS systems against realistic swarm attack scenarios in electronic warfare-contested environments.

Belgium's €400M National C-UAS Investment

Belgium announced a €400 million National C-UAS Programme, the most comprehensive small-nation counter-drone investment in NATO history. The programme covers detection (radar + RF + electro-optical), defeat (kinetic + directed energy + jamming), and C2 integration with NATO's Recognized Air Picture. Belgium specifically solicited non-U.S. technology providers — opening direct opportunity for Korean C-UAS entrants.

EU Defence Industrial Strategy: Drone Priority

The European Defence Industrial Strategy (EDIS, March 2026) designated autonomous drone systems and C-UAS as Tier 1 priority capabilities requiring European supply chain independence. EDIS explicitly discourages sole-source U.S. procurement, creating the largest European market opening for allied non-EU defense tech in decades. Korean defense companies with NATO-compatible C-UAS systems — including CBRN-UAS integration — are direct beneficiaries.

A greenish-yellow cloud drifted toward French and Algerian positions. The soldiers had no gas masks, no chemical detection equipment, no doctrine for chemical defense. Within minutes, 5,000 were dead and 10,000 incapacitated. The age of chemical warfare had begun —...
