M346 goes LAD and LiteHUD...

[A-129 Mangusta @NichoConcu]

At MFT 2025 Leonardo showcased what the cockpit for the M346 Block 20 will look like. The frontal panels are now replaced in favour for a Large Area Display, which are also seen in the AW-249 Fenice and F-35. Austria will be the first export for the block 20.

Sweden launches sabotage probe after another data cable damaged in Baltic Sea https://t.co/xUGOceWmWe

[Ulf Kristersson @SwedishPM]

There is information suggesting that at least one data cable between Sweden and Latvia has been damaged in the Baltic Sea. The cable is owned by a Latvian entity. I have been in close contact with my Latvian counterpart, Prime Minister Evika Siliņa, during the day.

Sweden, Latvia and NATO are closely cooperating on the matter. Sweden will contribute with relevant capabilities to the effort to investigate the suspected incident.
