Air & Missile Defense

The growing use of small drones is creating a new operational burden: countering them often requires trained specialists, dedicated equipment, and time-consuming setup. In...

Drone threats at sea are becoming more frequent and harder to manage. Small, low-cost UAVs can be launched in large numbers, forcing naval forces...

The growing use of small drones is forcing a rethink in short-range air defense. Commercial quadcopters and improvised FPV systems are inexpensive, easy to...

Modern armored units are facing a new challenge: drones are no longer a rare threat, but a constant presence. Small UAVs can locate, track,...

The rapid growth of aerial threats, from long-range aircraft to small, low-flying drones, has exposed limitations in traditional radar systems. Detecting objects at extended...

Modern military operations increasingly rely on long-range precision fires, but many of these capabilities have traditionally depended on ships or aircraft. In heavily contested...

The growing use of small, low-cost drones is creating new challenges for air defense systems. Many of these platforms are difficult to detect using...

Written by Or Shalom The Milipol TechX Summit (MTX) 2026, which opened on April 28th, 2026, at the Sands Expo Convention Center in Singapore, marks...

Rescue helicopters operating in contested environments face a growing threat from infrared-guided missiles. While onboard warning systems can alert crews to incoming threats, they...

The rapid spread of unmanned aerial threats is exposing a key limitation in current air defense systems: coverage gaps between ground-based sensors and high-end...

Modern air defense systems are becoming increasingly dense and sophisticated, making it harder for conventional aircraft to operate inside contested airspace. Long-range missiles offer...

Striking targets deep behind enemy lines has become increasingly difficult as air defense systems grow more capable and layered. Ground-launched missiles often face range...

The rapid spread of low-cost kamikaze drones is creating a growing challenge for air defense systems. These small, expendable platforms can be deployed in...

The growing use of drones in both military and civilian environments is creating a new type of threat that traditional air defenses are not...

The rapid spread of small drones is forcing armies to rethink how they defend moving formations. Low-cost UAVs can appear with little warning, overwhelm...

As missile threats grow more complex, particularly with the emergence of hypersonic weapons, traditional detection systems are struggling to keep pace. These threats travel...

Extending the range of high-speed missiles has long been constrained by propulsion limits. Conventional rocket motors carry both fuel and oxidizer, which adds weight...

The rapid spread of small unmanned aerial systems has created a growing challenge for military and security forces. Low-cost drones can be deployed quickly,...

The rapid rise of drone warfare has exposed a key limitation in traditional radar systems. Small, low-flying drones are difficult to detect, especially when...

The rapid spread of small drones on the battlefield is exposing a persistent weakness in traditional air defense: low-altitude coverage. Quadcopters and loitering munitions...

Airspace surveillance is becoming more complex as traffic density increases and new types of aircraft operate at lower altitudes. Air traffic controllers are often...

Modern battlefields are becoming increasingly complex, with multiple targets, fast-changing conditions, and the need for rapid decision-making. Traditional drone operations, where each platform is...
