How the Pentagon wants to buy cyber outcomes, not equipment “I’m focused on one single priority, and that is building a more robust set of capabilities for the [defense] secretary and the president. The demand signal that we see across all of our leadership in the department, our combatant commanders … far exceeds the supply we have,” Katie Sutton, assistant secretary of defense for cyber policy, said in September. Politico first reported last month that drafts of the forthcoming Department of Defense cyber strategy show the Pentagon wants contractors to play a bigger role in conducting operations themselves. @USMC @BreitbartNews @DailyCaller Source: Breaking Defense

Air National Guard to stand up a new special tactics squadron U.S. Special Operations Command is headquartered at MacDill Air Force Base near Tampa, Florida. Air Force Special Operations Command is based hundreds of miles away at Hurlburt Field, Florida, which is hundreds of miles northwest of MacDill in the Florida Panhandle. Hegseth’s memo indicates that the unit’s initial activation will be funded from the fiscal year 2027 budget and that the 2028 budget could cover additional construction, equipment and manpower authorizations. @MikePompeo @SpaceForceCSO @FoxNews Source: Task & Purpose

Poll: Jewish Voters Favor Republicans over Democrats by Nearly Two to One Republicans lead Democrats by 31 points among Jewish voters on the congressional ballot, according to a McLaughlin & Associates poll that points to a potential shift among a group that has long favored Democrats. McLaughlin surveyed 1,000 likely midterm voters nationwide. Jewish voters represented four percent of the poll’s sample. The firm did not disclose the exact number of Jewish respondents or a margin of error for that group. @NationalReview @TomCottonAR @SenJohnCornyn Source: Breitbart Defense

USAF Orders ARRW Hypersonic Missile Into Production, The Same Weapon It Nearly Cancelled As mentioned, the Air Force had moved to cancel ARRW in 2023, following a number of failed flight tests . The explicit intent at the time was to shift resources to the Hypersonic Attack Cruise Missile (HACM) effort. HACM is an air-breathing hypersonic cruise missile that functions in a completely different way from ARRW. HACM is still in development, and the program has now moved into flight testing, as TWZ was first to report earlier this month. There had already been steady signs in recent years that ARRW’s fortunes were changing and that it had not actually been axed , despite the Air Force’s stated plans to do so. The Air Force’s 2026 Fiscal Year budget request last year confirmed that the service had fully rebooted the program and was seeking new funding to procure actual missiles. @BreitbartNews @SenatorWicker @SpaceForceCSO Source: The War Zone

U.S. Navy Taps Attack Boat for 2027 Australian AUKUS Assignment USS Colorado (SSN-788) will be assigned to Submarine Rotational Force-West, which will be based HMAS Stirling outside of Perth starting in 2027. “The selection of USS Colorado as the first submarine assigned to SRF-West in 2027 marks a significant milestone for AUKUS Pillar I and is a decisive step in strengthening collective deterrence in the Pacific,” reads a Monday statement from the Australian Government and Pentagon leadership. @marcorubio @SenatorWicker @BreitbartNews Source: USNI News

The Anti-Taliban Resistance Has Survived. Can It Win? Massoud’s National Resistance Front was the first group to emerge from the wreckage of the fall of Kabul. The overwhelming majority of its attacks have focused on his father’s Jamiat-e-Islami strongholds in Panjshir, Baghlan, Takhar, Badakhshan, and other northern provinces. Massoud remains the most internationally recognized resistance leader, regularly traveling abroad to represent the interests of those opposed to Taliban rule. Former Afghan National Army Chief of General Staff Yasin Zia’s is the second-oldest and most established anti-Taliban resistance group. Zia, also a former governor of Takhar, has conducted attacks not only in his stronghold of northern Afghanistan but also in predominantly Pashtun areas, including Nuristan, Kunar, and even Kandahar and Helmand, suggesting a wider operational reach than Massoud’s National Resistance Front. @marcorubio @usairforce @FoxNews Source: War on the Rocks

Air Force tests ‘rocket cargo’ to resupply troops anywhere That’s an idea the military is actively pursuing, and last week the Air Force got one step closer to making that a reality. “This was a critical achievement to demonstrate the potential of Rocket Cargo delivery for point-to-point rapid global mobility for the Future Force,” Adam Remaly, the director of the Air Force Research Laboratory Technology Transition Office, said in the announcement . @SpaceForceCSO @TomCottonAR @marcorubio Source: Task & Purpose
