Two of the U.S. defense industry’s most closely watched companies announced they are joining forces to compete for one of the Army’s most significant ground combat modernization programs, pairing a combat-proven Israeli-American cannon system with Silicon Valley’s most prominent defense technology firm.

Elbit Systems of America and Anduril Industries announced a strategic teaming agreement on June 2, to offer the SIGMA Mobile Tactical Cannon for the U.S. Army’s Self-Propelled Howitzer Modernization program.

I am sickened that the military industrial ties between the US and Israel continue to grow. We need to get past a thought terminating "drones make expensive war machines obsolete anyway!" FAST on the left and in the general public or all of this is going to get through unnoticed and the US will never extract itself from the Genocidal machinery of the State of Israel.
