Monday, January 19th, 2026

The special edition release is now available in 13 states and Washington, D.C. for purchase online.New York, NY (January 15, 2025) – SPYRT Worldwide, the veteran-founded importer dedicated to bringing Ukraine’s finest wines and spirits to the U.S., proudly announces the launch of the Ukrainian Spirit Limited Howitzer Edition with a special packaging made from used artillery shell propelling charge cases from Ukraine’s defense against the russian invasion. 10% of the profit from sales is donated to Invictus Global Response, a team of US Veteran bomb technicians who clear landmines in Ukraine as volunteers and train demining teams.

“We’re incredibly proud to introduce the Ukrainian Spirit Howitzer Limited Edition,” said Sam Lerman, Co-Founder and CEO of SPYRT Worldwide. “This release is far more than an extraordinary 3-liter vodka, as it’s hand-crafted from repurposed military powder charge tubes and finished with meticulous leatherwork. With a portion of all proceeds from the manufacturer supporting the Armed Forces of Ukraine, this product allows consumers to directly support a powerful cause while experiencing exceptional quality.”

The Ukrainian Spirit Limited Howitzer Edition 3-liter is bottled at 40% ABV/80 proof using SPYRT’s Ukrainian Spirit Reserve Vodka. Crafted using a unique “SINGLE WATER” technology, in which the water, spirit, and vodka all originate from the same artesian well tapped since 1876. This crystal-clear spring water is drawn from 200 meters beneath the lush pine forests of Volyn and combined with specially selected grain from the steppes of Western Ukraine. The vodka is produced using patented Pentagonal distilling technology and undergoes a 10-day resting period before bottling. This meticulous process has earned Ukrainian Spirit a Double Gold at the WSWA 2025 Tasting Competition.

The base of this drink’s packaging is crafted from a repurposed M119A2 Propelling Charge Case, sourced directly from Ukrainian military personnel. Each tube is carefully refurbished to restore its appearance and smooth out any dents from previous use. The Ukrainian Spirit Limited Howitzer Edition is then wrapped externally in genuine Italian leather, which is hand-stitched around the case. The bottle’s “label” is also made from genuine Italian leather and features all product information. It is secured to the bottle with metal fasteners, highlighting the product’s meticulous craftsmanship.

SPYRT Worldwide is a US and Ukrainian veteran-founded and owned, dedicated to promoting Ukraine’s rich cultural heritage through the country’s top wines and spirits, founded in 2022. The company’s vision and mission, in addition to forging these connections between the two countries, also focus on empowering the people of Ukraine. Each bottle sold helps further SPYRT’s mission to support humanitarian and demining efforts in Ukraine.

Galvion Expands ‘Charge on the Move’ Capability with Vehicle and Dismounted Integration Solutions

Monday, January 19th, 2026

Galvion, a global leader in the design and manufacture of innovative head systems, power and data management solutions, and integrated soldier systems, has expanded its Charge on the Move capability with the introduction of new vehicle-mounted and dismounted integration accessories designed to support real-world operational use. This announcement coincides with SHOT Show, taking place in Las Vegas, 20-23 January 2026, where Galvion is exhibiting the Charge on the Move system alongside their wider product offering on booth #32003.

Building on the field-proven Squad Power Manager™ (SPM), these new accessories transition Charge on the Move from a demonstrated capability into a scalable, mission-ready solution that enables power generation, distribution, and battery charging while on the move—whether mounted in vehicles or carried by dismounted operators. The expanded offering includes a vehicle mounting solution for the SPM, developed in collaboration with Juggernaut.Case™, and a Mobile Power Pack, created with Haley Strategic™, providing a fully integrated, modular option for dismounted power and radio management.

The SPM Vehicle Mount securely installs the Squad Power Manager across a wide range of vehicle platforms, supporting rapid installation, clean cable routing, vibration protection, and tool-free removal for dismounted operations. Designed to accommodate varied vehicle interiors and mission needs, the mount offers multiple attachment options, allowing units to position the SPM where it is most accessible. Tested to relevant MIL-STD environmental requirements, the mount supports reliable power access while vehicles are in motion, allowing soldiers to arrive at the point of dismount with charged batteries and powered equipment.

Complementing the vehicle configuration, the Mobile Power Pack offers a complete, ready-to- deploy backpack-based solution designed to carry the SPM, SoloPack™ batteries, radios, cabling, and associated accessories in a single optimized loadout. Developed with Haley Strategic, the pack integrates modular organization panels, cable routing, and ergonomic load distribution to support communications-heavy roles and extended operations

Todd Stirtzinger, CEO at Galvion, said: “Charge on the Move was always envisioned as more than a single configuration—it’s about giving units flexible options to manage power across platforms and phases of a mission. These integrations reflect how operators actually work, and how partners can help accelerate deployable capability rather than one-off prototypes.” He added: “By working with established industry partners, Galvion continues to expand our power and data ecosystem beyond standalone hardware, offering validated configurations that can be adopted as accessories or tailored into program-specific kits.”

The Charge on the Move vehicle mount and mobile pack are available as accessories for existing Squad Power Manager systems and can be incorporated into customized power and communications kits based on mission and user requirements.

Building on the proven performance of its predecessor, the new FAST XP helmet system introduces a fully NIJ lllA (sometimes referred to as NIJ 3A) and HG2-certified ballistic shell, available in both high-cut and mid-cut geometries, along with new advancements in fit, comfort, and system integration tailored specifically for law-enforcement operations.

It delivers the protection, stability, and all-day comfort officers need, backed by the quality and reliability they expect from Gentex.”

Purpose-Built Protection for the Law Enforcement Mission

Anduril Awarded $23.9 Million Contract for US Marine Corps Organic Precision Fires-Light Program

Monday, January 19th, 2026

The U.S. Marine Corps awarded Anduril a $23.9 million contract to deliver more than 600 Bolt-M systems for the next phase of the Organic Precision Fires-Light (OPF-L) program beginning in February 2026. The USMC’s OPF-L program is designed to provide dismounted Marine infantry rifle squads with a man-packable, easy-to-operate precision strike capability to engage adversaries beyond line of sight.

The contract award comes after 13 months of rigorous testing. During that phase, Anduril delivered an initial tranche of more than 250 Bolt-M systems and validated Bolt’s performance against a variety of safety, environmental, and performance requirements. Across hundreds of flights, Bolt-M demonstrated its category-leading range, endurance, and payload capacity against multiple target sets. Following that successful testing, the U.S. Marine Corps selected Bolt-M for initial fielding.

Under the next phase of the program, Anduril will deliver more than 600 Bolt-M systems – and associated ground control and ancillary equipment – to the USMC between February 2026 and April 2027. Bolt-M will be fielded into the first operational Marine units beginning in the summer of 2026, where end users will train and employ organic, loitering, precision strike capabilities in tactical formations.

In parallel, Anduril has been investing internally to scale production capacity and processes for Bolt-M to meet the needs of the OPF-L program, and others. Anduril has refined its Bolt production process – across design engineering, supply chain, quality, manufacturing engineering and operations – and the Bolt production facility itself, scaling production capacity to more than 100 all-up-rounds per month. This year, Anduril plans to scale production across Bolt variants to a sustained rate of more than 175 systems per month.

Anduril recently built and delivered more than 300 Bolt systems to another customer within just five months of contract award. That effort validated Anduril’s production ethos: develop, manufacture and deliver category-defining, reliable products at unprecedented speed and scale.
