Latest Weapons and Defence Trends: Jerome Starkey at London DSEI Expo 2023

Jerome Starkey reports latest developments in defence technology from DSEI at the Excel in London.
The Sun takes a look at the latest weapons and defence trends showcased at the Defence and Security Equipment International (DSEI) arms fair in London's ExCel centre, as the venue welcomed visitors on the first day of the event (September 12) - attracting record numbers of visitors, according to the organisers.
The fair exhibits all types of weapons: military drones, missiles, robot, planes, submersibles and even tanks. It may appear that the latest developments in the war between Russia and Ukraine have given the weapon industry a push dictated by the tense and horrific situation.

BRAVO very good journalism indeed 👏 big Bravo the Sun more of like these videos pls

no matter how high tech this machines to kill has come.. the instinct is still very much the basis of humanity until we learnt to live in peace for the better long term

What a terrible species we are. Imagine if we could spend this sort of money on Hospitals, Doctors, Schools and Teachers.

I do Not understand why sea baby could not have sat lower in the water . Waterproofed body .even 90% submersed. We need "Big Baby"

[@dt6653]

That probably would limit the range and speed. Might as well make them torpedoes.

[@MonkeyBoyStudio]

Starlink was non operational in the specific area. It was not cut. Big difference.

[@dt6653]

Good video. Thanks. Thank you, OneWeb for helping Ukraine.

[@depleteduraniumcowboy3516]

The UK is setting the bar high for how the rest of the world needs to step up in helping Ukraine defend itself.

[@user-ir1lu1ei4n]

Not really our country is a mess

[@depleteduraniumcowboy3516]

@@user-ir1lu1ei4n we'll y'all still understand who the bad guys are when a country is invaded by another. Here in the US we don't get that much.

[@Music5362]

Good video except for what you said about Elon's Star Link is probably wrong. Starlink wasn't switched on for Crimea, so couldn't be switched off. Because of US sanctions against Russia, Starlink isn't allowed to supply it's services to Russian areas. It's good the UK has a system which it can rely on which no one can switch off.

[@SerginhoPMoura]

This is entirely wrong. Starlink was active over Crimea, and over the Donbass for that matter, long before the attack. The US does not sanction either Crimea or the Donbas simply because those regions are NOT part of Russia, but Ukraine. Both russian and ukrainian soldiers have effectively been using Starlink in those areas from day one. Elon Musk intentionally turned off the system over Crimea to thwart Ukraine's attack. It's in his biography. The reason he did this though, that's the real question.

[@pasiyensajonasi-lt5lf]

First of all, Crimea is Ukraine,Mr music. Second, meatball musk admitted to turning off the signal,spacifically to stop Ukraine from punching putin in the face. What musk doesn't know is that God already determined the outcome of putin. Him and his army are doomed to failure,(Daniel 11: 26) . No matter how rich and powerful musk is, there's one richer and all powerful than him_the sovereign lord, Jehovah, whose power is unmuch. Isaiah 40:26) Elon musk, all your money can't stop what Jehovah has set in motion. Ukrainians were whipping Putin's ass long before the west handed them the figurative 5 smooth stones. Putin's Belshazzar moment is here. But he's so blinded with hatred for Ukraine that he can't read the writing on the wall.😮

[@windowboy]

Elon was telling fibs. Plain and simple.

[@mrbigolnuts3041]

Please show the 'Skynet' stand!

[@PrimarchX]

Yes, lethality is the nature of war. Shouldn't be surprised if this is a key element of weapon sales.

[@herrakaarme]

If you want peace, prepare for war, as it is said. The better and more weapons you have, the more unlikely you are to face a situation where you need to use them. At least as long as you aren't the one attacking, but for most countries, that's not a concern.

war is expensive

[@tridsonline]

👍🏻 Great news that someone is willing and able to pick up the slack from Musk's disappointing decisions. To be fair though, he is on record as saying that he didn't turn off Starlink over Crimea, as it was never turned on there in the first place.

[@Mac-ix4qp]

Yes, most adults know war is bloody and deadly, but thanks for the sermon. The quicker Melon Head Musk is out of the equation the better.

[@Puzzoozoo]

He's smarter then you'll ever become, and more wealthier then your family will ever be. Not bad for a 'melon head'.

Yep, he should never have given the Starlink terminals to Ukraine in the first place. The Ukrainians should send them back. Musk is Pure Evil. That's my Two Minutes Hate for the day.

Based on this telling, I wonder if Uncle Sam had a role to play in Elon Musk's decision?

[@marcopaganotto9125]

How lovely. The people of the UK really must hear this, because they must be prepared for the war that's obviously planned for us all. So let's gradually introduce more and more reports about equipment and explanations of their use, to familiarise the citizens of the UK with the kit they're going to be forced into using!

Thank goodness there is an alternative to Starlink. Musk is proving himself to be a supporter of the Russian invasion. Slava Ukraini from South Africa.
