The Pentagon has launched a 120-day Project Meridian to explore how new technologies will change the wars of the future. The project will be led by Elon Musk, Anduril founder Palmer Luckey, and former Speaker of the US House of Representatives Newt Gingrich.<\/strong><\/p>\n

This was announced<\/a> by Pentagon chief Pete Hegseth.<\/p>\n

Meridian participants are tasked with identifying what technologies, weapons, and military capabilities the United States will need in future conflicts. The results of the study are to be prepared within 120 days<\/strong> .<\/p>\n

\u201cWe leverage a unique source of American advantage that our adversaries do not have: our innovators, our senior leaders, and our technologists,\u201d Hegseth said.<\/p>\n

The results are planned to be made public, while a separate classified report will be prepared for the Pentagon.<\/p>\n

Hegseth also announced the creation of the Autonomous Warfare Command, AutoWarCom<\/strong> , which will be responsible for the development and deployment of drones and other autonomous combat systems. It is scheduled to become operational in October 2027.<\/p>\n

Recall that earlier the United States received mobile laser systems to combat drones<\/a> . The LOCUST complexes are designed to destroy drones.<\/p>\n

In addition, the American military is using Ukraine’s experience in drone warfare<\/a> when training allies.<\/p>\n
