Extending the range of high-speed missiles has long been constrained by propulsion limits. Conventional rocket motors carry both fuel and oxidizer, which adds weight...

Developing vehicles that can travel at hypersonic speeds—Mach 5 and above—poses extreme engineering challenges. At such velocities, airframes are subjected to intense vibration, aerodynamic...

Modern air operations are often complicated by poor visibility. Darkness, heavy weather, smoke and dust can all degrade sensors and make it harder to...

Targeted operations in the heart of a hostile capital require an exceptionally high level of intelligence: real-time movement tracking, analysis of behavioral patterns, and...

As drones take on a larger role in intelligence and surveillance missions, the demand for faster and more autonomous data processing is growing. Traditional...

The rapid spread of unmanned aerial threats is exposing a key limitation in current air defense systems: coverage gaps between ground-based sensors and high-end...

Modern air operations are increasingly shaped by the need to strike targets at long range without exposing aircraft to dense air defense systems. Traditional...

Modern military operations depend heavily on satellite navigation. From troop movements and logistics to targeting and timing synchronization, GPS-based positioning systems are deeply embedded...

Despite technological advances, the load ordinary soldiers carry in 2018 is probably greater than it’s ever been, and there are constant efforts to make...

25 of the world's leading AI scientists are calling for world leaders to take stronger action on AI risks and warning that the progress...

iHLS and the Ministry of Defense invite you to join the fifth cycle of INNOFENSE and receive a remarkable opportunity to showcase your technology...

The U.S. Marine Corps is set to bolster its anti-drone capabilities with the deployment of the Leonidas Expeditionary, a cutting-edge high-power microwave (HPM) system...

An innovation developed by a team of Chinese scientists has the potential of revolutionizing electronic warfare by using drones to deceive enemy radar systems....

The United States Special Operations Command (USSOCOM) has entered into a five-year research and development partnership with Seerist, aimed at advancing its use of...

A new drone interceptor has been unveiled that aims to counter hostile UAVs quickly and efficiently—without relying on explosive warheads. Developed by French startup...

A new unmanned counter-drone platform will make its debut at this year’s AUSA conference, combining high-power microwave technology with a fully autonomous ground vehicle....

Unauthorized drones have become a persistent security challenge for airports, stadiums, prisons, and other sensitive locations. These sites increasingly rely on perimeter sensors, but...

As vehicles grow more connected, their internal systems depend on a constant flow of data from sensors monitoring everything from temperature and tire pressure...

Modern air forces are under growing pressure to adapt quickly to a battlefield where unmanned systems evolve faster than traditional procurement cycles. Commercial drones...

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 armored vehicles are being pushed to their limits by a changing battlefield. Infantry fighting vehicles must now deal with better-protected targets, widespread drone...

Robots are often expected to operate where wheels fail: collapsed buildings, uneven ground, mud, ice, or debris-covered floors. Yet most legged robots still struggle...
