A new UK-led operation, dubbed Nordic Warden, has been launched by the multinational Joint Expeditionary Force (JEF), marking a significant leap in the protection...

On February 11, 2025, the "Definitely Defense" conference, organized by iHLS in collaboration with Amit Pollak Matalon & Co. and Deloitte, brought together leaders...

Telegram, founded by Russian-born Pavel Durov, was recently imposed with a fine of 7 million Rubles (approximately $80,000) by a court in Moscow for...

A staggering data leak has revealed one of the largest breaches of personal information in digital history—an estimated 16 billion login credentials exposed across...

The year isn’t even over yet, but cyber groups linked to North Korea have already made 2025 their most profitable year to date, stealing...

Modern militaries increasingly rely on unmanned aircraft to perform reconnaissance, strike, and electronic warfare tasks. But as these missions grow more complex, the challenge...

One of the biggest challenges in modern air combat is detecting, tracking, and engaging fast-moving aerial targets at long distances. Traditionally, only crewed fighter...

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...

Moving extremely heavy military payloads has always involved trade-offs. Conventional missile launch vehicles rely on large diesel engines, rigid axles, and complex mechanical linkages....

Naval forces are under increasing pressure to monitor vast maritime areas, protect critical sea lanes, and respond quickly to emerging threats—often with limited numbers...

Robots have long struggled outside carefully controlled environments. While factory automation excels at repetitive, predefined tasks, even small changes in lighting, object position, or...

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...

Developing vehicles that can travel at hypersonic speeds—Mach 5 and above—poses extreme engineering challenges. At such velocities, airframes are subjected to intense vibration, aerodynamic...

Coordinating multiple drones and ground robots during a complex mission is rarely simple. Operators must manage sensor feeds, assign roles, deconflict movement paths and...

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,...

Modern combat platforms are generating more data than ever before, but turning that information into actionable decisions remains a challenge. Sensors, radios, and surveillance...

Military training has traditionally focused on observable outcomes - whether a task was completed correctly or a decision was made on time. But this...

Frontline units often face a simple limitation: access to real-time aerial intelligence. In many cases, smaller formations must rely on higher command to allocate...

Small drone swarms are becoming increasingly difficult to stop using traditional air-defense systems. Conventional remotely operated gun turrets usually rely on mechanically rotating toward...

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...

Firefighters frequently operate in environments where collapsing structures, intense heat, toxic smoke, and rapidly changing conditions pose significant risks. Entering these areas to extinguish...
