• •Germany's Bundeswehr is studying Ukraine's Delta system to enhance its defense capabilities.
• •Collaboration discussions are underway between the Bundeswehr and Ukraine's Brave1 innovation cluster.
• •The urgency for innovation in Germany is driven by lessons learned from the war in Ukraine.

The German Bundeswehr is exploring the potential use of Ukraine's Delta digital battlefield situational awareness system to enhance its own defense capabilities. Sven Weizenegger, Head of the Cyber Innovation Hub, stated that they are studying Delta to learn from Ukraine's experiences in modern warfare. Discussions are ongoing between the Bundeswehr and Ukraine's defense innovation cluster, Brave1, regarding collaboration on specific projects. Weizenegger emphasized the urgency for Germany to accelerate defense innovation, drawing lessons from Russia's ongoing war against Ukraine. He noted that while Germany is not at war, it must find solutions in peacetime conditions. The Bundeswehr is also working to eliminate bureaucratic barriers to speed up innovation processes. An agreement has been signed between Ukraine and Germany to exchange digital battlefield data for developing new weapons systems.
