Following on from #Stormshroud, we now have a family of @RoyalAirForce Storm-prefixed autonomous systems emerging, Storm Fighter, the CCA, and now Storm Chrome, an EW warfare drone, and Storm Fire, a 1,000nm one-way effector, to be used by the RAF Regiment. #GASCC26

"Our alliances are our superpower, they are envied and feared by our adversary in equal measure. So, to this end, they must be nurtured, deepened and broadened," says @ChiefofAirStaff in closing keynote speech at #GASCC26

On #StormFighter, @RoyalAirForce official at #GASCC26 today - "You want something that is good enough that is cheap enough that can be produced fast enough, and we need enough of them. If you're building something that takes 70% of the build time of an F-35 and costs three-quarters of it, then rip up your CCA programme and start again." I suspect this is what happened to the RAF's canned Project Mosquito effort some years back...

At @airpowerassn #GASCC26, MoD minister Luke Pollard repeatedly referred to "sixth-generation sovereign Tempest jets", confirming that, at present at least, #Tempest IS going to be the name that the UK assigns to whatever comes out of #GCAP.

#GCAP is gaining attention further afield, says @LukePollard, possibly a hint to Farnborough announcements. On export, "the UK is also pivoting from campaigning not just on platforms but on components and services, able to reach more markets or more allies," he adds. #GASCC26

The @RoyalAirForce shot down more than 100 drones and missiles in the Middle East and flew 3,000 hours of defensive missions during recent operations, @LukePollard says. #GASCC26
