Operating aircraft over heavily defended territory has become increasingly difficult as air-defense systems grow more capable and networked. Traditional surveillance platforms struggle to remain...

Modern military operations increasingly take place in environments where GPS cannot be relied upon. Electronic jamming, urban terrain, dense foliage, and underground spaces can...

Modern warships are increasingly exposed to short-range aerial threats that traditional defenses struggle to counter efficiently. Small drones and fast, maneuverable targets can overwhelm...

Stealth fighters are no longer defined only by their shape. As air combat shifts toward longer ranges, dense electronic warfare, and mixed formations of...

As networks of connected devices continue to expand, a growing problem is emerging at the hardware level. Sensors embedded in everyday systems—from cameras and...

China’s heavy reliance on imported natural rubber has long been a strategic weak point. Rubber is a critical input for automotive manufacturing, industrial equipment,...

At first glance, diesel submarines seem to defy basic physics. Diesel engines require oxygen for combustion, yet these vessels spend much of their time...

Low-cost drone swarms have exposed a growing imbalance in modern air defense. Small, unmanned aircraft can cost only a few thousand dollars and be...

Finnish AI startup raises €120M for defense.

Operating in the Arctic presents a unique set of challenges for autonomous systems and military platforms. Extreme weather, limited infrastructure and inconsistent satellite coverage...

Swiss startup PAVE Space has raised $40 million in a seed funding round to bring a new line of in-space propulsion systems and advanced...

Naval mines remain one of the most persistent threats in maritime security. Relatively inexpensive and easy to deploy, they can disrupt shipping lanes, block...

Modern air operations increasingly demand platforms that can cover long distances, perform multiple roles, and respond quickly to both aerial and ground threats. However,...

Modern military operations increasingly rely on long-range precision fires, but many of these capabilities have traditionally depended on ships or aircraft. In heavily contested...

As small drones become faster, cheaper, and more numerous, traditional radar systems are facing a growing challenge. Most electronically scanned array (ESA) radars detect...

Modern military and civilian communications environments are becoming increasingly crowded. Drones, radios, sensors, satellites, electronic warfare systems, and wireless networks all compete for space...

The growing variety of drone threats is creating a new challenge for air-defense operators. Modern battlefields can include everything from commercial quadcopters and first-person-view...

Electronic warfare has become one of the defining features of modern conflict. Jamming systems can disrupt satellite navigation, interfere with communications, and reduce the...

The growing use of drones, cruise missiles and low-flying aircraft is putting renewed pressure on short-range air defense systems. Soldiers operating near the front...

Inspecting pipelines, power lines and transportation corridors presents a difficult logistical problem. These assets can stretch for hundreds of kilometers through remote terrain, making...

In the age of big data, law enforcement (LE) and intelligence agencies face a significant challenge: critical information is often hard to uncover within...

Recent reports have raised concerns within the cybersecurity community about the U.S. potentially halting its offensive cyber operations against Russia. Now, the Pentagon has...
