Modern battlefields are saturated with electronic activity. Drones, radars, radios, data links, and command networks continuously emit signals that can reveal the location and...

The wireless networks envisioned for the 6G era promise enormous data rates, potentially reaching terabits per second. Achieving those speeds, however, requires the use...

Mortar teams depend on fire-control systems to calculate firing solutions, manage targeting data, and coordinate indirect fire missions. Traditionally, many of these functions have...

When someone falls overboard, time becomes the most critical factor in survival. Ships traveling at speed require time to stop, launch rescue craft, and...

Over the past several decades, nations and armed organizations have invested heavily in moving strategic assets underground. Combat tunnels, bunkers, ammunition depots, command centers,...

Engineers have long looked to origami and kirigami for inspiration when designing lightweight structures that can transform shape without relying on complex mechanical systems....

Integrating heavy weapons onto compact robotic ground vehicles has become a growing focus for modern militaries, but the engineering challenge is significant. Small unmanned...

Modern naval radar systems face a growing challenge: the electromagnetic spectrum is becoming increasingly crowded. Warships today must manage surveillance, missile guidance, communications, and...

Modern combat increasingly depends on the rapid movement of information between units. Drones, helicopters, artillery systems, and ground troops all generate large amounts of...

Modern military operations depend heavily on satellite communications. From command-and-control links to intelligence sharing and global force coordination, thousands of users across different services...

Modern armored vehicles face a growing range of threats that traditional armor was never designed to handle alone. Mine blasts can injure crews even...

Modern military and civilian communications environments are becoming increasingly crowded. Drones, radios, sensors, satellites, electronic warfare systems, and wireless networks all compete for space...

When a fire alarm sounds, most people instinctively head toward the nearest exit. The problem is that the closest route is not always the...

Modern air-defense networks face an increasingly diverse set of threats. Combat aircraft, cruise missiles, drones, and tactical ballistic missiles can approach from different altitudes...

Extreme long-range shooting pushes multiple technologies to their limits. At distances measured in kilometers rather than meters, even small variations in ammunition, optics, wind...

Modern armed forces are increasingly looking for strike weapons that can engage targets from long distances without exposing launch platforms to enemy air defenses....

For decades, combat aircraft programs have largely followed the same model: highly complex manned platforms developed over long timelines by a small group of...

Software vulnerabilities remain one of the biggest challenges in cybersecurity. Modern organizations operate thousands of applications, cloud services, libraries, and dependencies, making it increasingly...

Protecting borders, critical infrastructure, and transportation corridors is becoming increasingly challenging as the number of threats and users operating within these environments continues to...

Optical satellites provide valuable imagery from orbit, but they have a well-known limitation: they depend on visibility. Clouds, storms, smoke, darkness, and atmospheric conditions...

The growing variety of drone threats is creating a new challenge for air-defense operators. Modern battlefields can include everything from commercial quadcopters and first-person-view...

As unmanned systems expand across air and land domains, underwater autonomy is becoming an increasingly important area of military development. Traditional submarines remain highly...
