Swedish firm Warhound to develop genetically modified war dogs with body armor

Warhound, a Swedish company with 2 billion kronor in funding and ties to Colossal Biosciences (the mammoth de-extinction firm), plans to engineer genetically modified dogs for military use, equipped with body armor. The project signals a novel convergence of biotech and defense, though details on timelines, genetic modifications, and military adoption remain unclear. This marks a first-of-its-kind commercial venture in military bioengineering, potentially setting a precedent for future defense biotech applications.
