Protective gear such as helmets and body armor must strike a difficult balance. Materials need to be strong enough to withstand impact, but not...

Modern naval radar systems face a growing challenge: the electromagnetic spectrum is becoming increasingly crowded. Warships today must manage surveillance, missile guidance, communications, and...

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...

Major international sporting events present a unique security challenge. Large crowds, unfamiliar visitors, confined urban spaces, and heightened global attention create conditions where even...

Drones have become valuable tools for inspection, emergency response, industrial monitoring, and aerial reconnaissance. Yet even advanced platforms often struggle in confined environments filled...

Explosive ordnance disposal remains one of the most dangerous missions on the modern battlefield. Even when technicians do everything right, repeated exposure to blast...

Engineers have long sought materials that can change their mechanical behavior depending on the situation. In robotics and protective equipment, the challenge is clear:...

A new propulsion development effort focused on solid rocket motors with extended range capabilities is moving forward in the United States, following the award...

General Stephen Whiting, commander of US Space Command, recently warned lawmakers that China and Russia have “transformed space into a contested warfighting domain.” Whiting...

Written by Or Shalom Effective defense against threats such small, low-speed unmanned aerial systems (LSS - Low, Slow, Small), requires a multidimensional approach. Modern detection...

Modern stealth aircraft are designed around one key principle: avoiding detection for as long as possible. But carrying large external weapons can undermine that...

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

An international team of researchers worked for three years to compile the first ever "World Cybercrime Index” (which was developed as a joint partnership...

The Latvian National Armed Forces will acquire unmanned aerial vehicles, in a move that will support local manufacture. The Latvian Ministry of Defense signed...

Modern air-defense systems face a growing challenge: the number of incoming threats is rising, and so is the cost of intercepting them. Rockets, drones,...

A report released on cyber security breaches in the Pentagon is probably what brought on efforts to improve security, as well as increasing collaborations...

Underwater missions are often constrained by endurance. Most autonomous underwater vehicles rely on batteries, which limit how long they can remain submerged before needing...

Highland Systems (a company based in the UAE) redesigned the Kronos stealth submarine, which could be a game-changer in the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war. Alexander Kuznetsov,...

China has made a leap in space technology with the launch of the world’s first satellites capable of autonomous navigation. The two satellites, Siwei...

China’s spy balloon has been grabbing public attention since its appearance in U.S. skies in February of 2023 when the Pentagon announced it was...

Stealth aircraft are designed to defeat radar, sensors, and air defenses—but in the case of the B-2 bomber, one of the most persistent threats...

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...
