🌍 Situation Report

• BlueHalo Secures $50M UAS EW Sensor Contract: The Naval Information Warfare Center has awarded BlueHalo a $50 million contract to deliver advanced electronic warfare (EW) sensors for unmanned aerial systems (UAS). These sensors are designed to enhance detection and countermeasure capabilities against evolving aerial threats.
  

• Algeria Deploys Russian Repellant-1 Anti-Drone Systems: Algeria has begun operating Russian-made Repellant-1C systems as part of its counter-UAS strategy. These systems are designed to detect, jam, and neutralize hostile drones, reflecting the growing adoption of specialized anti-drone technologies in North Africa.
  

• France Ends Rafale Jet Sale to Morocco: France has ceased its efforts to sell Rafale jets to Morocco, as the U.S. secures a deal to export F-16s instead. The shift underscores the competition between Western allies in defense exports and Morocco’s preference for U.S.-made platforms in modernizing its air force.
