Robotic fabrication has traditionally required specialized skills, detailed digital designs, and lengthy production times. In most environments—industrial, commercial, or operational—this limits how quickly custom...

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...

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...

Airspace management is under growing pressure. Traffic density continues to rise, low-altitude operations are expanding, and controllers are often forced to rely on a...

Unmanned aerial vehicles used for long-range reconnaissance face a familiar set of tradeoffs. Internal combustion engines offer endurance but generate noise and heat that...

A growing need on the modern battlefield is to deploy vast numbers of low-cost, autonomous systems rather than relying on expensive, manned platforms. This...

Amphibious assaults place unique demands on armored vehicles. Platforms must survive open-water transit, land directly onto hostile shores, and then continue operating inland against...

Firefighting in industrial sites, disaster zones, and remote environments often exposes crews to extreme heat, toxic smoke, and unstable structures. While remotely controlled unmanned...

Modern naval forces face an increasingly complex underwater picture. Quieter submarines, dense maritime traffic and the growing risk of seabed mines make persistent undersea...

Transmitting information between underwater and airborne systems has long posed a technical challenge. Sound behaves very differently in water compared to air due to...

Conventional firearms rely on chemical propellants, producing noise, flash, and visible signatures that can limit their use in certain operational scenarios. In law enforcement...

Coordinating large numbers of robots to perform complex tasks remains a major challenge. Traditional systems often rely on centralized control, detailed planning, and constant...

Hypersonic systems promise significant advantages in speed and responsiveness, but their development has been slowed by a persistent challenge: most propulsion technologies are designed...

Modern air defense systems are increasingly facing a difficult economic problem. One-way attack drones and loitering munitions can be produced cheaply and launched in...

Modern warships face a growing challenge: the number of threats they must engage is increasing faster than the space available onboard. Missile launch cells,...

The rapid spread of small drones has created a growing challenge for air-defense forces. Many of the drones now used for reconnaissance, targeting, and...

Electronic warfare has become one of the defining features of modern conflict. Jamming systems can disrupt satellite navigation, interfere with communications, and reduce the...

Written By Or Shalom Over the past decade—and particularly in recent years—the lower airspace domain has evolved from a regulatory gray area into one of...

Inspecting pipelines, power lines and transportation corridors presents a difficult logistical problem. These assets can stretch for hundreds of kilometers through remote terrain, making...

Modern military units are becoming increasingly dependent on electricity. Drones need regular charging, electronic warfare equipment can draw substantial power, and edge-computing systems must...

Convex is a graduate of the INNOFENSE Innovation Center operated by iHLS in collaboration with IMoD. A main and critical need for the IDF ground units is...

The New York-based technological startup ZeroMark has secured funding to advance the development of its handheld counter-drone technology, which is based on Israel’s Iron...
