Olivier Coquet, who heads the section, in a briefing with reporters here at the Eurosatory defense show on Sunday. He said the kill web will be part of the broader <a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/global\/europe\/2026\/06\/06\/france-to-test-its-own-ai-powered-battlefield-command-in-june-nato-exercise\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"\">Arcadia<\/a> AI-powered battlefield command and control structure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cJust like the Ukrainians are doing we want to set up a kill web as quickly as possible,\u201d Coquet said. \u201cIn other words, shorten the sensor-to-effector loops so we can fire faster and make decisions faster. That\u2019s already underway.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With Delta, Ukraine has developed a battlefield awareness system built on a network of drones, satellites, artillery and command, allowing its forces to engage targets via multiple pathways rather than follow a traditional linear kill chain. It\u2019s a concept France has already been exploring with its Scorpion program of digitally connected armored vehicles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Coquet described Arcadia as a combination of multiple programs, including the kill web. The purpose of Arcadia is interoperability between allied command systems, said Gen. Philippe de Montenon, the commander of the French land forces and operations, in the same briefing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThis is a major challenge we need to resolve in the very short term, ensuring that what we call our combat clouds can communicate with one another,\u201d de Montenon said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The kill web will be
