Romania's €25.7M customs scanning upgrade signals coordinated EU border hardening ahead of expanded Schengen accession pressures. The non-intrusive inspection equipment procurement includes radiation detection capabilities, mirroring US CBP's $66.7M Leidos maintenance contract for similar dual-use screening systems. Meanwhile, counter-UAS spending shows tactical evolution — from detection-only systems to integrated C2 platforms, with the US awarding $119M to SAIC for counter-UAS support services and new contracts for "weapons-to-targets optimization." The convergence suggests 2025 procurement cycles prioritize automated threat correlation over manual analysis across CBRNE and aerial domains.
