About this listen
Innovation is changing warfare faster than ever before.
In this episode of Eastern Frontline, MEP Reinis Pozņaks and MEP Rasa Juknevičienė are joined by Nikos Loutas, NATO’s Director of Innovation, to explore how new technologies — from drones to artificial intelligence — are reshaping the battlefield.
Drawing on lessons from Ukraine, they discuss how rapid innovation cycles, commercial technologies and new defence startups are transforming modern conflict. What once took years to develop can now evolve in weeks.
But while technology is accelerating, procurement systems and defence structures are struggling to keep up.
We find out:
- how NATO is working to integrate new technologies into defence planning
- why small and medium-sized companies are now central to military innovation
- the challenge of turning innovation into deployable capability
- the growing role of artificial intelligence in future warfare
- and why speed — not just spending — is now the decisive factor in defence
It is a timely discussion on the race to adapt, and what it will take for Europe and NATO to stay ahead.
