This 8×8 Vehicle Goes From Ocean to Battlefield
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...
A High-Speed Robot Boat Is Becoming a Floating Drone Carrier
Small, unmanned boats are increasingly being used for surveillance, logistics and other maritime missions, but their usefulness has traditionally ended at the water's surface....
Autonomous Drone Brings New Tech to Tracking Submarines
Locating submarines has always been one of the hardest challenges in maritime security. These vessels rely on stealth, operate across vast ocean areas, and...
US Drone Ship Builder Raises $1.75B for Naval Tech Expansion
U.S. defense-tech startup Saronic Technologies has raised $1.75 billion to expand its production of unmanned surface vessels. According to a report by news.az, the...
How Ordinary Cargo Ships Could Become Instant Warships
Modern naval planning is increasingly shaped by speed and scale. Building new warships takes years, while crises can unfold in weeks or days. For...
A New Robot Submarine Built for Stealth Strike Missions
As unmanned systems expand across air and land domains, underwater autonomy is becoming an increasingly important area of military development. Traditional submarines remain highly...
AG600 – The World’s Largest Seaplane
China began widespread production of the AG600 – the world’s largest amphibious aircraft, developed by the Aviation Industry Corporation of China (AVIC) to enhance...
The Underwater Drone That Hitches a Ride to Battle
Undersea operations present a persistent challenge: distance and endurance. Oceans are vast, and autonomous underwater vehicles must travel long ranges before reaching their mission...
This Tiny Boat Could Patrol Waters Without Putting Anyone Onboard
Monitoring large stretches of ocean creates a difficult resource problem for military and security forces. Ports, shipping lanes and strategic waterways may require continuous...
The Future of Submarine Steering Starts Here
Modern submarines rely on increasingly complex control systems to maneuver safely in three dimensions, manage propulsion, and coordinate onboard sensors. As underwater missions expand...
Clearing Naval Mines Without Putting Sailors at Risk
Naval mines remain one of the most persistent threats in maritime security. Relatively inexpensive and easy to deploy, they can disrupt shipping lanes, block...
The Sea Drone That Hunts Mines at Helicopter Speeds
Naval mines remain a quiet but persistent danger. Cheap to deploy and difficult to detect, they can block ports, restrict maneuver, and threaten both...
This Heavyweight Torpedo Just Passed One of the Toughest Tests in...
Submarine warfare depends heavily on one weapon: the heavyweight torpedo. Unlike missiles, which can be observed and tracked throughout much of their flight, torpedoes...
New Eavesdropping Technology Reveals Vulnerabilities in Underwater Communications
Researchers from Princeton and MIT have uncovered a method for intercepting underwater communications, challenging long-standing assumptions about the security of sonar transmissions. By using...
The Engineering Secret That Keeps Subs Under the Radar
At first glance, diesel submarines seem to defy basic physics. Diesel engines require oxygen for combustion, yet these vessels spend much of their time...
A New Torpedo Concept Flies Before It Hunts Underwater
Hunting submarines from the air presents an awkward problem. An aircraft may detect or receive the suspected position of an underwater target, but a...
Amphibious Alligator Brings Autonomy to Maritime Logistics
Moving equipment, sensors, and unmanned systems across land–sea boundaries has long been a logistical bottleneck. Most platforms are built for either terrain or water,...
When Divers and Robots Start Thinking Together
Underwater operations present a persistent challenge for both humans and machines. Visibility is often limited, communication is constrained, and navigation can quickly become uncertain....
