Overview
- The proposals call for massed long‑range strike capabilities, including cruise missiles, hypersonic rockets and small guided munitions, alongside at least 100,000 AI‑enabled drones supported by space‑based assets.
- An Iron Dome–style air‑defence architecture with a minimum of 2,000 interceptors would bolster defensive and reconnaissance capacities.
- The paper seeks ‘seamless’ real‑time monitoring of the Baltic Sea through unmanned underwater drones and sensor networks to protect critical infrastructure, citing suspected cable attacks by Russia’s shadow fleet.
- Rather than a single European army, the CSU argues for tighter military cooperation with German technological and numerical leadership, and urges pressing ahead with FCAS nationally if partners waver.
- The agenda also affirms continued support for Ukraine and unconditional arms deliveries to Israel while rejecting recognition of a Palestinian state, and it is slated for a caucus vote at Kloster Seeon next week with financing and implementation left unspecified.
