A New Motor Test Pushes Battlefield Propulsion Ahead
Solid rocket motors remain essential for missiles, target vehicles, and space-launch systems, but their development cycles are often long, expensive, and constrained by legacy...
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 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...
Flying Sensors Strengthen Defense of Critical Infrastructure
Power transmission lines stretch across forests, farmland, and mountainous terrain, where they face constant exposure to heat, vegetation growth, and shifting weather patterns. These...
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...
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...
Another Country Joins the Trend With a Strategic Shift To a...
For much of the post–World War II era, Japan kept defense-spending tightly constrained, relying on alliances and a strictly defensive posture to ensure security....
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 Robot Attack Didn’t Need the Internet in Order to Spread
As humanoid and quadruped robots move from research labs into public spaces, factories, and homes, their growing autonomy is creating a new class of...
The GPS Backup We Didn’t See Coming: A Nuclear Clock on...
Modern navigation systems rely heavily on satellite timing, and that dependence has become a growing vulnerability. GPS signals can be jammed, spoofed, or disrupted...
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...
New Hybrid Waves Could Power Tunable 6G Tech
Future wireless networks will need to process far more data across a wider range of frequencies than today’s systems. This creates a fundamental challenge:...
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...
This UGV Doesn’t Flinch at Mines, Snow, or Rubble
Modern ground forces face a recurring challenge: many critical tasks occur in places too dangerous or too unpredictable for soldiers to enter safely. Minefields,...
New SIGINT Prototype Aims to Keep Units Connected When Signals Disappear
Modern military operations depend on uninterrupted communication and rapid data sharing, yet many battlefields are anything but cooperative. Urban density, electronic warfare, and natural...
When Fighters Retire, Some Come Back as Target Drones
Modern air forces face a growing challenge in evaluating new air-to-air weapons: missiles must be tested against maneuvering, fighter-size targets, not simulators or scaled-down...
This Locally-Manufactured Wheeled Howitzer Brings Automation to the Front Line
For decades, Israel’s artillery relied on tracked systems introduced in the 1980s. While dependable, those platforms were manpower-heavy, slower to reposition, and increasingly mismatched...
