Israel’s defense-technology sector has entered a period of accelerated consolidation, with eight companies acquired over the past three months by major international defense and...

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...

Modern military operations increasingly depend on seeing targets long before forces arrive on scene. High-risk missions, especially those involving special operations or politically sensitive...

Drone operations are often limited by one key factor: endurance. Even advanced platforms must return to base for recharging or battery replacement, creating gaps...

Modern fighter pilots are expected to process enormous amounts of information while flying at high speed, tracking multiple airborne threats and coordinating with other...

Previous INNOFENSE cycles have helped innovative technologies make the leap from civilian development to defense applications. Now, iHLS and the Ministry of Defense are...

The US Army’s Future Vertical Lift cross-functional team wants to integrate new unmanned aerial systems into its family of rotary-wing aircraft, according to the...

A new ability to easily and intuitively control unmanned systems from the cockpit of a manned tactical aircraft has been recently demonstrated. Textron Systems,...

Are you a startup company related to the security sector? Are you looking for recognition, international exposure, access to investors, and the ability to...

The Pentagon recently held one of the most powerful drone demonstrations for a mass sUAS attack scenario to date. The Joint C-sUAS Office (counter small-unmanned...

Lockheed Martin has unveiled a groundbreaking development in military aviation: the ability to control drones using artificial intelligence (AI) directly from the cockpit of...

Building an aircraft that can fly several times faster than sound has always been one of aviation’s hardest engineering challenges. At hypersonic speeds, temperatures...

Air dominance is becoming harder to achieve as battlefields extend upward and outward, blurring the line between atmosphere and space. Traditional fighter jets are...

AI-powered drone operating system

Modern air operations depend heavily on airborne early warning aircraft to detect threats, coordinate forces, and manage complex engagements across large areas. But many...

Flying autonomously through complex environments requires more than knowing where a drone is. The aircraft must continuously understand what surrounds it, distinguish open routes...

The UK has made a significant advancement in aviation technologies by completing the first-ever commercial flight trials with advanced quantum-based navigation systems. These systems...

The US Army has patented a groundbreaking technology aimed at extending the flight duration of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). Developed by the Army Combat...

The MQ-72C Logistics Connector, a rotary-wing unmanned aerial system (UAS) derived from the UH-72 Lakota platform, is set to begin trials with integrated autonomous...

Minefields remain one of the most time-consuming and dangerous obstacles for ground forces. Traditional breaching tools—mechanical rollers, plows, and manual clearing—can take hours, require...

Small drones are already reshaping ground combat, but most weaponized variants still struggle with accuracy. Recoil, vibration, wind, and constant micro-movements make it difficult...

Loitering munitions have become a central feature of modern conflict, offering a relatively low-cost way to strike targets with precision. However, many existing systems...
