About UK Defence Tech
UK Defence Tech is a new online news platform dedicated specifically to the UK’s defence and aerospace tech industries. We deliver timely and authoritative coverage, spanning air, land, sea, cyber, and electronics, with a powerful mix of breaking news, in-depth quick guides, analysis and opinion, and exclusive interviews.
What makes us different?
The clue is in the title:
UK
Unlike most defence media, we concentrate on UK companies creating the sovereign innovation and manufacturing base we so urgently need. We cover the political decisions from Whitehall, and the MoD procurement decisions that implement it. Whether you work in industry, procurement, investment or policy, or you’re simply paying close attention to where British defence is headed, this is built for you.
Defence
This is the tech and equipment used by the UK armed forces. We won’t be posting news on what they’ve been doing, where they’ve deployed or who they are training with – other outlets do that far better. But we will drill down into the vehicles, vessels and weapon platforms they’re using. Independent coverage that’s not afraid to ask the hard questions, not repackaged press releases.
Tech
Our team have been embedded in various tech industries for decades, we understand the whole process from innovation and funding to approval and manufacture, and how speed to market is critical. In defence there is a gap between legacy procurement and the pace of modern warfare, making it clear we need to innovate fast to stand any chance of fighting a modern war.
