[PRESS RELEASE] ACI EUROPE welcomed today the long-awaited and overdue decision by the EU to lift the 100ml restriction to the carriage of Liquids, Aerosols and Gels (LAGs) in cabin bags for all flights departing from EU airports equipped with advanced security screening equipment developed by Smiths Detection – thus allowing the secure carriage of LAGs of up to 2 litres. Whilst lifting this restriction will improve passenger convenience and experience, ACI EUROPE raised serious concerns and denounced structural shortcomings in the current EU testing and certification regime – thus reiterating its call for an urgent and complete reset of this regime and associated processes. ACI EUROPE has for the past 2 years called for the development of a fully integrated EU testing and certification system for aviation security equipment – in full cooperation and alignment with the UK and the US. This can only be delivered with the European Commission taking full ownership and responsibility for overseeing such reformed system and ensuring a unified, transparent approach.

L3Harris Technologies has a long legacy of partnership with European defense and security forces through our local European businesses. The opening of a new manufacturing and product support center in Katowice, Poland, represents the next step in that commitment.​ ​ From Katowice, we are producing high-performance ISR and sensor systems designed to deliver proven performance across domains. Establishing this capability in Europe means operators gain faster access to the systems, support and upgrades they need to sustain mission readiness.​ ​ With more than 1,400 WESCAM systems delivered across 32 European countries and integrated on over 119 platforms, our technology is already a trusted part of Europe’s defense landscape. This new facility ensures we can keep pace with evolving demand – strengthening resilience today and preparing for the missions of tomorrow. ​https://lnkd.in/d9-qJPJp

Ukraine has released the first detailed footage of Army Aviation helicopters intercepting Russian Shahed drones at night — using advanced Teledyne FLIR sensor technology. Equipped with the UltraFORCE 350 multi-sensor system, one helicopter tracks and guides the strike aircraft onto the target, enabling the safe destruction of drones carrying warheads weighing up to 90 kg. Originally designed for patrol, reconnaissance, and search-and-rescue missions, the UltraFORCE 350 is now proving critical in airborne counter-drone operations — helping Ukraine preserve scarce and costly air defense missiles while protecting cities from mass drone attacks. https://lnkd.in/dKfun_5P
