Welcome to the 151st issue of Global Defence Technology magazine.

Elsewhere, and the role that naval frigates play could go back to the drawing board as competing concepts of modularity versus missions-specific specialisation battle for primacy. Whisper it quietly, but some schools of thought say modular warships are on their way out.

Also, don’t miss out on the latest insight from the team on responsible use of AI in the corporate sector, advances in ground-based air defence, an exclusive interview with Pakistan’s chief of the naval staff, and more.

All this and the latest defence industry news, comment, and analysis from GlobalData.
