The Future of Drone Warfare May Be About the Network, Not...
Military forces are rapidly adding drones and robotic systems, but operating them as separate platforms creates a growing coordination problem. One aircraft may collect...
Security Without the Bottleneck? Smarter Detection Could Change Checkpoints
Airport security depends on finding dangerous materials without bringing passenger movement to a halt. Liquids remain one of the most visible compromises: travelers are...
GPS Jammed? This Artillery Round Is Built to Stay on Target
Precision artillery has become increasingly dependent on satellite navigation, creating an obvious vulnerability on battlefields saturated with electronic warfare. If an adversary jams or...
Quantum Sensors Could Turn Cheap Drones Into Submarine Hunters
Finding a submarine beneath the ocean is one of the more difficult surveillance tasks in modern warfare. Sonar and sonobuoys can listen for underwater...
Starship Just Put 26 Satellites in Orbit—Keeping Them Safe Is the...
Putting more capable satellites into orbit creates opportunities for communications and other space services, but it also increases the value of the hardware that...
This Software Turns Individual Drones Into a Coordinated Swarm
As armed forces deploy growing numbers of unmanned aircraft, managing them efficiently is becoming as important as the drones themselves. Controlling each aircraft individually...
Building Tech for Two Worlds? INNOFENSE Is Looking for Dual-Use Startups
Building on the success of previous cycles and the progress of participating technologies within the defense sector, iHLS and the Ministry of Defense invite...
Your Gaming Tech Could Have a Second Life in Defense
Military systems are becoming increasingly sophisticated, but the person operating them still needs a practical way to control what is happening. Complex interfaces can...
Too Smart to Release? OpenAI Cancels New Model Over Safety Concerns
As AI models gain the ability to act independently, safety testing is increasingly about more than preventing harmful answers. Developers also need to determine...
Can AI Spot a Threat Before It Happens?
Modern cybersecurity systems face a scale problem. Networks generate enormous amounts of traffic, and malicious activity may be hidden among millions of ordinary interactions....

This New Security Platform Is Designed to Stop Rogue AI Agents
AI agents are increasingly capable of navigating websites, using software tools and carrying out complex tasks without waiting for human approval at every step....
Soldiers Could Soon Wear Battlefield AI on Their Wrists
Modern soldiers can receive information from drones, sensors and other units, but getting that data to the person who needs it becomes difficult when...
INNOFENSE Launches New Call for Breakthrough Dual-Use Technologies
Following the achievements of previous cycles, iHLS and the Ministry of Defense are opening applications for the seventh cycle of INNOFENSE. The program offers...
One Software Platform Could Control Drones and Ground Robots Together
As organizations deploy more robots, a new problem emerges: each machine can come with its own controls, software and mission-planning tools. An operator working...
A New Torpedo Concept Flies Before It Hunts Underwater
Hunting submarines from the air presents an awkward problem. An aircraft may detect or receive the suspected position of an underwater target, but a...
This AI Could Catch a Supply Crisis Before It Reaches the...
Modern military logistics depends on enormous networks of warehouses, suppliers and inventories, but having large amounts of data does not necessarily make those networks...
Drones Slip Past Air Defense? This System Is the Ship’s Last...
Modern warships can carry sophisticated air defenses, but inexpensive drones have created a difficult problem at the opposite end of the engagement range. FPV...
This Rifle Upgrade Times Every Shot to Help Hit Fast-Moving Drones
Small drones have become a difficult target for infantry. They can approach quickly, change direction and present a much smaller target than a conventional...
No Runway, No Aircraft: This Paraglider Lets Troops Take Off on...
Getting personnel into remote or hostile territory normally requires aircraft, helicopters or prepared launch infrastructure. Those options can be noisy, detectable and dependent on...
