AI and EW Team Up to Outsmart Enemy Radars
Modern military operations rely heavily on understanding and shaping the electromagnetic environment. Radar emissions, jamming signals, and electronic intelligence streams can shift rapidly, leaving...
Not a New Missile — a Smarter Way to Build More...
Rising demand for missiles has exposed a persistent challenge across defense supply chains: propulsion components are difficult to scale quickly without introducing delays or...
Autonomous Refueling Pushes Drones Beyond Their Old Limits
One of the main constraints on unmanned aerial systems has always been endurance. Even large drones with long range are limited by fuel capacity,...
Stopping Drones Without Collateral Damage: A New Approach
Small, commercially available drones have become a persistent battlefield problem. Easy to acquire and modify, they are now widely used for reconnaissance, targeting, and...
Air Defense Is Shifting from Quality to Quantity — Carefully
Growing missile arsenals are placing unprecedented pressure on air and missile defense systems. Ballistic threats are no longer limited to a small number of...
Iron Dome Set the Standard, but Now Others Are Building Their...
For much of the post–Cold War period, the United Kingdom invested relatively little in homeland air and missile defense. Long-range ballistic threats were seen...
A Fold-Wing Drone That Delivers EW Where Big Platforms Can’t
Electronic warfare is no longer confined to large ships, fixed sites, or crewed aircraft. In littoral environments—where coastlines, islands, and narrow waterways limit maneuvering...
The Frightening Evolution: When a Suicide Drone Becomes an Air Hunter
Imagine a quiet night, its stillness broken only by a familiar, monotonous hum – the ominous sound of Shahed loitering munitions. Ground forces have...
Robot Fighter Copies Every Move of Its Human Operator
Robots intended for combat support or hazardous-duty missions typically rely on pre-programmed actions or remote-control interfaces, limiting how precisely they can mimic human movement....
This Stealth UAV Is Built to Scout Ahead of the Strike
Operating aircraft over heavily defended territory has become increasingly difficult as air-defense systems grow more capable and networked. Traditional surveillance platforms struggle to remain...
This Launcher Was Built for Precision — Now It’s Raising Nuclear...
Europe’s security planners are increasingly focused on the blurring line between conventional and nuclear missile forces along NATO’s eastern flank. Mobile missile systems that...
When Light Meets Steel: Laser-Armed UAVs Reshaping Aerial Combat
Modern aerial battlefields are becoming increasingly congested, characterized by a proliferation of small, low-cost threats that prove challenging and often uneconomical to intercept using...
New Hypersonic Weapon Shrinks Global Strike Timelines from Hours to Minutes
Modern militaries face a growing challenge in striking high-value targets that are both well-defended and highly mobile. Traditional cruise and ballistic missiles offer range...
The Radar Upgrade That Could Keep a Cold-War Bomber Flying to...
Large strategic bombers were designed for a very different battlespace than the one air forces face today. Modern conflicts rely on dense sensor networks,...
A Budget Hypersonic Missile With Big Strategic Implications
Modern air- and missile-defense systems face a growing imbalance: interceptors are becoming increasingly expensive, while offensive weapons—especially drones and guided munitions—are rapidly decreasing in...
The Missile That Turns Speed and Angle Into a Naval Weapon
Modern naval forces are increasingly challenged by the limits of traditional missile defense. Ship-based interceptors and radar systems were largely designed to counter predictable...
Less Noise, More Time in the Air: A New Kind of...
Archer, a U.S.-based company, has been selected to integrate its advanced electric propulsion system into the "Omen" unmanned air vehicle (UAV). The Omen UAV...
A Next-Gen Strike Weapon Designed for Threats That Move and Hide
Modern air-defense networks are becoming harder to penetrate, with mobile launchers, dispersed command nodes, and dense sensor arrays creating narrow and fast-moving windows of...
The New Laser-Based Iron Beam Is Live — And It Shoots...
Air-defense systems have become highly effective at intercepting rockets and missiles, but they come with a persistent problem: cost and capacity. Low-cost threats such...
This Deep-Strike Drone Doesn’t Rush—It Circles Until You Slip Up
Modern armored vehicles have become increasingly difficult to defeat as active protection systems, reactive armor, and rapid maneuvering continue to advance. Conventional anti-tank weapons...
A New AI System Might Mean that Ships Will No Longer...
Monitoring vessel movements has become far more difficult in recent years. Ships involved in sanctions evasion, smuggling, or illicit transfers frequently disable their Automatic...
