Research and evidence programmes
Each programme is a distinct publication surface with its own corpus and boundary. Together they remain bounded public research, not a claim of continental completeness.

Publication log
Selected dated states from the current public corpus.
European 155 mm Bottleneck Transmission is the featured derived model at evidence cutoff 18 August 2026.
Air Defence Programme Map publishes a 140-row programme and tranche snapshot.
The founding Counter-UAS dossier remains available as historical context and a public evidence record.
Evidence treatment
Observed, reported, inferred, assumed, missing and unavailable states remain distinct. Analytical models do not silently become factual releases, and absence of public evidence is never recoded as zero.
European Counter-UAS acquisition in 24 months
The founding dossier remains a scoped, preliminary open-source assessment of a modular acquisition pathway. It is part of Strategic Base’s history and public evidence record; it is not the current extent of the product.
