Haroche, P. “A Rampart of Drones to Defend Europe”, Brief, Jacques Delors Institute, September 2024
Drones are currently at the heart of many key challenges to European security. A European Union (EU) drone production and procurement plan launched by the European Commission and High Representative could have several simultaneous objectives:
- strengthening Ukraine’s capabilities in an increasingly crucial category of military equipment,
- stimulating the adaptation of the European Defence Technological and Industrial Base (EDTIB) to a major military revolution, and
- preparing NATO’s European pillar to face up to the challenge of massification and the risk of a US pivot towards Asia.
This threefold reinforcement of Ukraine, the EDTIB and NATO’s European pillar would constitute what might be called Europe’s ‘rampart of drones’.
