Conor Neill on the 3 best ways to start a speech (most people get this wrong): "I guarantee if you go to conferences, 19 out of 20 speakers will start in one of these ways: 'My name is Conor Neill. I'm from Tango, and this talk is about the latest trend in monitoring strategies.' But all of you are sitting with a piece of paper that already says who I am and what I'm going to talk about. By repeating what you already know, I'm giving a signal that it's time to get your BlackBerry out." Conor explains the three best ways to start instead: Third best: A question that matters to the audience. "How do you phrase a problem that the audience faces in a question?" Second best: A factoid that shocks. "There are more people alive today than have ever died. Every two minutes, the energy reaching the earth from the sun is equivalent to the whole annual energy usage of humanity. Does that change how you think about energy?" The best way: Start like you'd start a story to a child. "How do we start a story to a child? 'Once upon a time.' And what happens when you say once upon a time? My daughter leans forward, gets ready to hear, engages. We were all trained as kids to know when a story's coming. We also know when a teacher is about to deliver a 40-minute boring lecture." He explains the grown-up version: "In business, you don't hear Jack Welch saying 'once upon a time.' Steve Jobs doesn't start his speeches with 'once upon a time.' So there's a grown-up way of saying it: 'In October, the last time I was in this room, there were 120 people here. I was having a conversation with one of the world's experts on public speaking and he said something to me that changed what I think about what's important in speaking.' Now I can pause for 30 seconds, and you want to know what he said." Conor concludes: "Stories are about people. They're not about objects. They're not about things. If you want to tell a good story about your company, don't talk about the software talk about the people who built the software. What they do. How they are. What's important to them. What they sacrifice."

Indian drone companies have similar capacities. Some will innovate to be world leaders - the task is cut out for the R&D teams and the men imagining future CONOPS on which the R&D works. Rugged - simple - cost effective - EW resilient - AI enabled - lethal are the buzzwords

A Ukrainian defense tech company just broke into Wall Street — in the middle of Russia’s war. Drone AI startup Swarmer went public on NASDAQ at $5 and closed at $31 on day one — a 520% surge, turning a $67M company into a $670M valuation — Kyiv Independent. 1/

Good live case study of narrative warfare during active combat. The fog will take time to clear - finally the true combat realities will show result. Indians had a first hand experience during Op Sindoor where narrative warfare showed chinks despite emphatic combat victory.
⚡️David Blackmon⚡️@EnergyAbsurdity

🚨 Victor Davis Hanson: THE SIGNALS ARE ALL POINTING THE SAME DIRECTION No U.S. analyst knows better how to cut through the fog of war than Stanford University Prof. @VDHanson. In the clip below, Hanson, who’s studied how wars end for 50 years, says the tide has turned in America’s favor against Iran. Forget the rancid propaganda flowing from all quarters related to the Iran conflict and how it is going - Hanson says look at how everyone else is behaving. Hanson’s Key Points: • Europeans: They never touch a conflict until they smell victory. Early on? Crickets. Now they’re quietly moving assets and offering support. Pure calculation — they’ve read the battlefield and decided which side wins. • Gulf petro-states: Saudis, Emiratis, Qataris survive by reading the room perfectly. They’re expelling Iranian attachés, silently intercepting Iranian missiles over their capitals, and the UAE just reaffirmed its $1.4 trillion investment commitment to the U.S. mid-war. These are not gestures — they’re bets. And they’re all-in on America. • Al Jazeera: The Qatari state network that usually bashes U.S. actions (and hosts Hamas offices) is now calling America’s bombing campaign “brilliant” and “underestimated.” When the outlet that hosts both the biggest U.S. air base and Hamas praises U.S. effectiveness, the message is unmistakable: they think we’re winning. • Military reality: A-10 Warthogs and Apache gunships are now flying strike missions inside Iranian airspace at will. These slow, low-flying platforms only appear when enemy air defenses are effectively gone. Confirms what’s really happening on the ground. Iran’s only play left is rope-a-dope: drag it out, hope U.S. public opinion flips, pray midterms pressure Trump to quit. VDH’s verdict: If Trump sees it through — and he will — the regime falls. Not in years. Pretty soon. Bottom line: Watch what people do, not what they say. Every player with skin in the game is betting on America. The signals don’t lie. #Iran #Europe #Warthogs #Trump @AlJazeera

@Viv_Krishnan Yes kinetic kill is the only reliable option. Though soft kill would continue to be relevant as it handles the low cost threats which will be mixed with ones which are EW resilient and basically more cost effective. An integrated system is the best bet.

Been a year since this post. I’m more convinced today that kinetic kill against drones is the most reliable option. Been tracking defence contractor queries since the war started in the Middle East. All soft kill has proved worthless. There are very few solutions that can offer a complete kill chain - detection to kinetic destruction in the last mile (0-1 km especially). And contrary to old views, that’s where the defence is a sitting duck. The Iranian Shahed is a big deal but buyers have already realized that the class 1/2 threat is imminent. In essence, we’re going back to World War 2 territory…It’s back to shooting things out of the sky. We’ve been listening & doing for over a year. The world is waking up now. @sssdefence @coavn_ @AlishaMachani

⚠️ 2 Months Ago: Chinese OSINT Analysis on India’s Eastern Command Reveals Strategic Depth About 2 months ago, Chinese OSINT analysts took a deep dive into India’s Eastern Command – the silent giant guarding the nation’s eastern frontiers. 📍 Command & Structure: 4 Corps: 3rd, 4th, 33rd, 17th Corps 2 State-Level Command Districts: 101st & 111th 11 Infantry Divisions (9 specialized in mountain warfare) 35 Infantry Brigades (approx. 3,000 personnel per brigade) 13 Artillery Brigades (approx. 1,000 personnel per brigade) 2–3 Army Aviation Brigades Air Defense Brigades: Exact numbers unknown Armored Brigades: None 💪 Estimated manpower: 170,000–180,000 troops Area of responsibility: Borders with China, Myanmar, Bangladesh, Bhutan, and Nepal. Not just China – the Eastern Command is India’s multi-front guardian. Strategic Insight: Every mountain pass, every jungle trail, and every river line in the east falls under their watch. With highly mobile mountain troops and artillery, the Eastern Command ensures India is always battle-ready – whether it’s high-altitude warfare in the Himalayas or rapid-response along the plains. 📢 Bottom line: Eastern Command isn’t just a defensive formation – it’s India’s unseen shield on the East.

@FurkanGozukara This is not possible at current technology levels. It can work for low flying drones or helicopters to some level but for fighters it cannot replace need for radars for detection, location and tracking.

Iran is brilliantly bypassing billion dollar stealth tech using passive detection systems. Instead of radar, they use advanced infrared sensors to track heat signatures. It emits no signal, giving US pilots zero warning they are being targeted. Absolute game changer.

The "Ramadan Collection" that Kashmir never asked for. While families here in Kashmir were observing the sanctity of the holy month, Jaish-e-Mohammed was busy building a war chest. We’re seeing reports that JeM raked in over PKR 20 Crore this season alone. But let’s be clear: this isn’t "charity." While other groups like LeT were busy with PR stunts—spending on Iftaars and district publicity—JeM had a singular, cold-blooded focus: Cash. They’ve turned a sacred pillar of faith into a mandatory "Terror Tax," forcing their own cadre to fund a machinery designed for one thing: keeping the cycle of violence alive in our valley (Kashmir). When Zakat is extorted to buy bullets and IEDs instead of feeding the hungry, the mask is off. This is a direct investment in the bloodshed of our people.

Counter drone - another drone is the best option? This another drone needs to be more agile than the target. Tech guys would love such a challenge - speed, agility, sensors, AI enabled tracking and cueing, special war head - all in one small drone. #Ukraine efforts - WOW

Back to basics to winning wars. Platforms have to evolve - shed past - reimagine form to remain relevant. Forces will succeed only if EM Spectrum battle + Air Defence: networked & AI enabled are treated as key combat basics. Non contact kinetic default stage before contact battle
ᴜᴅᴀʏᴀɴᴛ ᴛᴏʙʏ ᴍᴀʟʜᴏᴜᴛʀᴀ 🇮🇳✨️@UTobyM

We are witnessing a 'Goliath Trap.' ​The world’s military superpowers - USA, Russia, Israel - were built for a 20th-century playbook: Shock & Awe. Heavy armor, $100M fighter jets, and $4M interceptor missiles. Powerful, Expensive, and increasingly a liability against a new kind of math. ​Ukraine and Iran have cracked the code of future wars. It’s not about having the best weapon; it’s about having the most expendable ones. ​By using Asymmetric Mass—swarms of $20k drones and low-cost missiles—they force Goliaths to spend millions to defend against thousands. When the cost-exchange ratio is 100:1, the defender loses the economic war before the first shot is even fired. ​The battle-sphere has been democratized. We’ve moved from exquisite tech (few, expensive, perfect) to 'combat-mass' (many, cheap, and 'good enough'). In 2026, air superiority isn't won by a stealth jet anymore—it’s won by the side that can saturate the sky until the enemy runs out of interceptors. ​The era of the 'unbeatable platform' is over. The era of the swarm has begun. The challenge for the defense industry isn't just building better tech—it's building at scale, at speed, and at a price point that makes the 'Goliath Trap' irrelevant. This is the shift we're driving at @DynautonSys.

Computer vision is only limited by visibility conditions. When time is on your side, ie u wait for optimum conditions - computer vision can give combat accuracies in GNSS denied environment. Sensor quality & AI enablement matter. Which Indian companies r leading in this space?
Lew Anno Support#USA#NATO#Ukraine 24/2-22@anno1540

Ukraine is removing GPS from the battlefield. Deftak’s AI-guided drone munitions use computer vision to lock targets and strike even under jamming. This is where the war is going: autonomy, precision, no signal needed. united24media.com/latest-news/uk…

How much would be war stamina for the current war? After that they can use the regular stuff militaries have been used to? Slow stalemate of tough adversaries who don't know when to stop for mutual good, cause they can't imagine mutual good?
