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...

As organizations increasingly deploy AI agents, cloud workloads, and automated services, traditional identity systems are struggling to keep up. Most enterprises still manage credentials,...

BAE Systems has secured a $70 million contract to manufacture missile tubes for the U.S. Navy’s Block VI Virginia-class submarines, significantly enhancing the firepower...

FIU Researchers have developed a new security system designed to protect drones mid-flight from cyberattacks that could otherwise hijack control and render them inoperable....

Naval forces face a growing need to monitor and operate across vast stretches of ocean without relying solely on crewed ships. Long-range patrols, intelligence...

A decades-old manhunt came to a dramatic conclusion thanks to artificial intelligence, as facial recognition technology helped UK authorities locate and arrest one of...

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...

Robots are getting better at sensing their surroundings, but moving safely through unfamiliar spaces remains a bottleneck. Most autonomous systems still depend on building...

As high-power lasers move from experimental concepts to practical counter-drone tools, one technical bottleneck continues to slow progress: power. Directed-energy systems require fast, intense...

Hypersonic weapons have traditionally been associated with long development cycles, specialized materials, and extremely high production costs. These factors have limited their deployment and...

Maintaining reliable communications in congested or contested environments remains a growing challenge for military and unmanned systems. Most fielded radios still rely on omnidirectional...

As hypersonic weapons move from demonstration programs toward operational deployment, a central challenge has emerged: how to produce them quickly and affordably at scale....

Short-range aerial threats have become one of the most persistent challenges in modern conflict. Rockets, mortars, and small drones are relatively inexpensive, easy to...

Air and missile defense planners are facing a rapidly widening threat spectrum. Beyond traditional aircraft, modern forces must contend with ballistic missiles, cruise missiles,...

In a covert effort to interfere with military support flowing to Ukraine, Russian state-sponsored hackers have been systematically targeting critical defense and transport infrastructure...

Artillery remains one of the most decisive tools on the battlefield, but modern military operations are demanding more than range and firepower alone. Today's...

Modern FPV drones have proven valuable for reconnaissance and precision attack roles, but their dependence on radio links has become an increasingly serious limitation....

Artificial intelligence is becoming an essential part of modern military systems, but deploying it in operational environments presents a challenge. Aircraft, drones, satellites, and...

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...

Archer, a U.S.-based company, has been selected to integrate its advanced electric propulsion system into the "Omen" unmanned air vehicle (UAV). The Omen UAV...

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...
