open architecture

.Leonardo unveiled “Michelangelo Dome,” an AI‑driven, open‑architecture protection system that fuses radar, sensors and communication layers to detect and neutralize threats—from missiles to drone swarms—across sea, air and land. Aiming for full deployment by decade’s end, the dome supports Europe’s push for sovereign defense amid rising geopolitical risk and aligns with EU funding and NATO spending targets. Its modular, network‑centric design promises real‑time data sharing among NATO/EU members, while creating recurring software‑service revenue and positioning Leonardo at the forefront of AI‑enhanced warfare.
