Zitat:German Army To Expand Drone Fleet From 600 to 8,000 by 2029 Building One Of Europe’s Largest And Most Diversifiedhttps://armyrecognition.com/news/aerospa...iversified
On August 13, 2025, as reported by Loyal magazine, the Bundeswehr presented a detailed and ambitious plan to expand its unmanned aerial systems (UAS) inventory from just over 600 today to more than 8,000 by 2029. This represents one of the most significant capability build-ups in recent years for the German armed forces and marks a decisive shift in operational priorities. The planned growth encompasses a wide spectrum of platforms, ranging from extremely compact nano-drones intended for close-range reconnaissance to loitering munitions designed to deliver precision strikes against selected targets. By committing to such a broad procurement effort, the Bundeswehr signals its intention to make unmanned systems a central element of future combat and support operations, reflecting an adaptation to the evolving character of warfare where drones increasingly serve as essential assets for both intelligence and engagement in dynamic and contested environments.
