This is really interesting. Ukraine developed this out of necessity and applied intelligence and commitment to make it work. Raises many questions beyond current war. Please keep reporting on this

Any thoughts on how to convert the US procurement system to the Brave1-type of procurement system? Seems like our multi-year or multi-decade approach to building and procuring new weapons has reached a predictable end point.

Contrary to what the German CEO, this is innovation. It combines decentralized purchasing the right tool for the job, as well as providing feedback of the equipment performance as well as performance of individual soldiers and their units. As a bonus, it creates a competition (that may be positive or negative) on the performance between units and even soldiers.
