Large strategic bombers were designed for a very different battlespace than the one air forces face today. Modern conflicts rely on dense sensor networks,...

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....

European air forces are facing a growing capability gap at the lower end of the combat aviation spectrum. Many light multirole and trainer-based attack...

Airspace security has reached a frustrating paradox. Drones are easier than ever to detect, yet safely stopping them remains a persistent challenge. Airports across...

Naval platforms are being asked to do more for longer, often in environments that place heavy strain on hulls, propulsion systems, and onboard electronics....

Modern military operations face a growing mismatch between threats and available strike options. High-end precision weapons deliver accuracy and range, but they are expensive,...

Small drones have become a common tool for surveillance, inspection, and reconnaissance, but they come with limits. Battery life restricts endurance, electric motors generate...

Policing vast rural territories presents a persistent challenge. In regional areas, specialist air support is often based hundreds of miles away, limiting rapid aerial...

As military operations become increasingly digital, managing large volumes of data and applications across distributed systems has become a core challenge. Defense organizations rely...

Operating drones on the battlefield often requires soldiers to expose themselves outside armored vehicles, even in high-risk environments. While drones provide critical situational awareness,...

Locating a person in open terrain, especially in a hostile environment with no continuous communication, remains one of the most complex challenges in search...

The growing use of small drones is creating a new operational burden: countering them often requires trained specialists, dedicated equipment, and time-consuming setup. In...

Modern military ground operations are increasingly moving toward autonomous systems capable of operating in contested environments with reduced risk to personnel. However, developing military...

Scientists created Tianmouc – the world’s first brain-inspired vision chip capable of sensing 10,000 frames per second, efficiently handling extreme scenarios, and ensuring system...

A new suicide UAV by the name of PD-2900 was recently unveiled in China. It has twin gasoline engines and large wings and resembles...
