Le drone Toutatis, développé par Thales et Renault, est décrit comme une munition téléopérée aux performances jugées limitées, mais pensée pour être produite en masse dans une logique industrielle de guerre de haute intensité.

Renault et Thales accélèrent la production du drone Toutatis, mais de quoi sera-t-il capable en cas de conflit?

Renault et Thales viennent de conclure un partenariat autour de la future munition téléopérée Toutatis. Présenté dans les grandes lignes par les entreprises créatrices, ce drone ne rivalisera pas avec les modèles à longue portée utilisés sur certains champs de bataille.

There is an interesting mixture of videos with ridiculously failing androids...
and astonishing abilities of others.
In one sort they look harmless and acceptable clumsy, even adorable mainly because of their human shape.
In another way they look very ..useful.

None of this should distract from their frighteningly rapid development.
None of this should distract from the question of who could benefit from their future capabilities and mass production.

„ #Volkswagen is considering plans to convert one of its German car factories into a production hub for Israel’s missile defence systems, the Financial Times reported on Tuesday.

The carmaker has held talks with Israel's #RafaelAdvancedDefenseSystems about repurposing its #Osnabruck plant, shifting from vehicle production to manufacturing components for Israel’s #IronDome system.“

Poland is Europe’s top military spender but its defense industry is a dwarf

Poland’s counter-drone plan fits the narrow niche its industry can deliver, while most of its massive rearmament still relies on foreign kit.

Speaking of Solidarity: Toward a Politics Beyond the Friend/Foe Paradigm · BG · berlinergazette.de · EN|DE

The global polycrisis intensified in 2025. One indication of this is that military violence has reached levels not seen since World War II, while global military spending has climbed to an all-time high. Rather than offering a systemic analysis of this situation, the media is dominated by the views of private sector elites and their political allies. These elites praise armament programs and ‘war readiness’ as a solution to the downward spiral. One major obstacle to nuanced, critical debate is the friend/foe dichotomy, which legitimizes military actions and their preparation. How can we overcome this binary reductionism and initiate urgently needed public debate on the increasing militarization and intensification of warfare? The editors of BG | berlinergazette.de search for answers in the afterword to the “Pluriverse of Peace” series.
