The EU plans to have its so-called "drone wall" fully functional and integrated within a "network based drone capability" by the end of 2027, according to a leaked copy of the upcoming Defence Readiness Roadmap 2030 seen by Euronews.
The document, which the European Commission will officially unveil on Thursday, builds on months of talks between the EU's executive and member states to completely revamp the bloc's defence policy in the face of an increasingly belligerent Russia.
