Britain will today announce the transfer of intellectual property rights to allow Ukraine to manufacture the Stone Cloak drone EW system, thousands of the device have already been supplied.

Stone Cloak is the size of a tablet computer and generates a short range electronic cloak around the drone that both drastically hinders detection by anti-drone radar as well as blocking drone jamming signals. Stone Cloak will be directly built in to the upcoming Project Brakestop low cost cruise missile.

Britain’s Sovereign Hypersonic Strike Effort Enters New Phase​

Britain’s Sovereign Hypersonic Strike Effort Enters New Phase | Aviation Week

Industry, academia and government are combining to rebuild the UK’s long-dormant hypersonics capability for the next generation of deep-strike weapons.
aviationweek.com aviationweek.com
The UK is progressing an ambitious national endeavor to join the growing number of countries capable of developing hypersonic weapons.

A £1 billion ($1.34 billion) initiative launched three years ago has now attracted more than 120 companies—and others waiting in the wings—as well as generated more than 25 research and development contracts and successfully tested propulsion systems.

Ex-Formula 1 engineers built Britain’s new cheap cruise missile

A British engineering company that spent decades building Formula 1 race cars has announced it will start delivering a weapon that flies faster than 460 mph, carries a 300-kilogram (661-pound) payload, and never comes back from its mission. MGI Engineering,

A British engineering company that spent decades building Formula 1 race cars has announced it will start delivering a weapon that flies faster than 460 mph, carries a 300-kilogram (661-pound) payload, and never comes back from its mission.

MGI Engineering, a defense firm based in Witney, Oxfordshire, announced that its TigerShark autonomous strike drone is coming soon, describing the system as a high-speed, one-way effector built for deep-strike missions against defended or distant targets. A one-way effector is the defense industry’s term for a weapon that flies to its target, strikes it, and is never recovered or reused, placing TigerShark in a category that functions much like a cruise missile while costing a fraction of what traditional missiles like Storm Shadow or Tomahawk run per unit.

Hope they have good security.

The second drone used by the Ukrainian military and made in British factories has a range of more than 600 miles. It is launched using a catapult system allowing drones to be fired in quick succession, according to The Times, which did not name the company for security reasons.
