U.S. Marines tested a mobile air-defense system known as MADIS in the Philippines to counter drones in field conditions.
The system combines radar, guns, missiles and electronic jamming, giving commanders more options than relying on expensive interceptors.
The drill points to a broader U.S. push to bring down the cost of defeating cheap drones, as price has become a central factor in modern warfare.

1- Cursor revealed that building cloud agents is no longer about simply moving an AI agent onto servers, but about creating a complete operating layer around it — including environments, networking, and reliability.
2- The company says the quality of agent performance now depends primarily on giving agents a full development environment similar to that of a human developer, not just on the strength of the model itself.
3- As cloud agents gain the ability to work autonomously for days or even weeks, AI infrastructure is gradually evolving into what resembles a new operating system for autonomous software.

1- A joint venture between a US startup and a Saudi company is building a factory near Riyadh to manufacture long-range attack drones inspired by Iran’s Shahed model.
