The current proliferation of modern technology such as inexpensive one-way attack drones, loitering munitions, and the increasing use of artificial intelligence for autonomous targeting has thrust the Marine Corps into a dynamic environment, creating a tactical shift in warfare unseen by warfighters since the widespread introduction of machine guns and tanks in World War I. Battles are now faster, more dispersed, and fought in contested environments where logistical infrastructure and supply lines have become priority targets.
U.S. Marines with II Marine Expeditionary Force, alongside U.S. naval forces, and partners from the Office of Naval Research (ONR) and the Space Dynamics Laboratory (SDL), tested new defenses against swarming drones during the Technology Operational Experimentation Event (TOEE) “Wave Breaker”, from Jan. 26, 2026, to Feb. 6, 2026.
Above the Arctic Circle, winter dominates the landscape. Snow blankets the mountains and subzero winds cut across frozen valleys. For most people, this terrain can feel remote and inhospitable. However, for U.S. Marines alongside NATO Allies and partners, it is a proving ground. In the Arctic, the environment can be as lethal as any adversary. This reality makes joint readiness, training, and the ability to rapidly mobilize equipment and personnel to crisis not optional, but essential to operational success in the event of armed conflict.
When a shortage of critical single-use consumable suspension washers resulted in multiple Amphibious Combat Vehicles being dead-lined, a state where equipment is taken out of service for mechanical or safety reasons, U.S. Marines with the Fabrication Platoon, 2nd Maintenance Battalion, 2nd Marine Logistics Group, stepped in, turning a potentially year-long delay into a one-hour fix, showcasing the immense value of advanced manufacturing at the fleet level.
