CATS Warrior is an important part of the CATS(Combat Air Teaming System).

Let's explore.

It is a loyal wingman drone being developed by HAL. It will fly alongside fighters like Tejas/Su-30MKI to scout, strike, jam, and take hits, so pilots stay safe. It's a low-observable (stealthy) unmanned combat aerial vehicle (UCAV) acting as a "loyal wingman".
Key roles:

🔹Real-time ISR (intelligence, surveillance, recon)
🔹Precision strikes with internal weapons
🔹Electronic warfare / jamming
🔹High-risk decoy to protect manned jets.

The U.S. "manufacturing renaissance" everyone talks about? It's almost entirely AI & data centers.
CHIPS Act + IRA poured hundreds of billions into chips/EVs/batteries.
But traditional sectors—steel, autos, building materials, furniture—are barely moving. Weak housing sector. Every new home built ripples through dozens of industries: plumbing, electrical, furniture, appliances, manual trades, local retail.
High economic multiplier (~3x).
Data centers? Heavy upfront construction jobs, then mostly automation. Few ongoing roles, narrow benefits.
