French Army's 68th Artillery Regiment reorganises CAESAR batteries to boost drone protection
The French Army's 68th Regiment of Africa Artillery is reorganising its CAESAR batteries to increase protection against drones. General Bruno Baratz, head of the Army's Future Combat Command, noted that in Ukraine defensive systems are outperforming offensive ones, creating a tactical stalemate driven by battlefield transparency.
Why it matters: France is taking Ukrainian lessons and applying them to a regiment that could deploy — not waiting for a new programme of record.
