Modern submarines rely on increasingly complex control systems to maneuver safely in three dimensions, manage propulsion, and coordinate onboard sensors. As underwater missions expand...

Robots are increasingly expected to operate in confined and complex environments, from industrial machinery to medical procedures inside the human body. Traditional robotic arms,...

Ukraine has developed a new unmanned aerial system (UAS) designed to counter the growing threat of Iranian Shahed UAVs, which have been widely deployed...

Proactive vulnerability intelligence platform

Modern military operations generate enormous amounts of information. Intelligence, logistics, fires, maneuver, protection, and communications all need to be coordinated across multiple units, often...

Modern air-defense systems are forcing combat aircraft to engage targets from ever greater distances. Flying too close to heavily defended areas increases the risk...

One of the greatest challenges facing modern air defense is no longer the single drone, but swarms of dozens or even hundreds of unmanned...

A German technology firm has unveiled a biologically integrated surveillance platform that turns living cockroaches into cyborg scouts capable of operating in areas where...

The widespread use of small attack drones on the battlefield has created a constant contest between range and resilience. In recent phases of the...

China has publicly demonstrated a new class of quadruped robots, dubbed “wolf robots,” during a large-scale military exercise simulating an amphibious attack on Taiwan....

Icing on aircraft surfaces remains a persistent operational challenge. During cold and wet conditions on the ground, ice accumulation can delay departures, disrupt schedules,...

Modern drone operations increasingly face a common challenge: GPS cannot always be trusted. Electronic warfare systems, signal interference, and environmental factors can degrade navigation...

Humanoid robots are often promoted as versatile helpers, but in real-world conditions they remain constrained by rigid frames and limited mobility. Tight spaces, uneven...

Lockheed Martin has been awarded a contract by the U.S. Department of Defense’s Innovation Unit (DIU) to create a cutting-edge, quantum-enhanced Inertial Navigation System...

Modern air defenses are forcing strike systems to evolve rapidly. Weapons that once relied on persistence and operator control are now expected to reach...

In a step toward smarter and more responsive military gear, researchers in South Korea have unveiled a new type of fabric-based technology that transforms...

High-performance infrared imaging normally requires exotic materials or cryogenic cooling, making it too costly for widespread commercial or security use. Conventional CMOS sensors—the same...

A new AI-powered control system developed by Peraton under a U.S. defense initiative has shown the ability to keep robotic platforms functioning safely even...

For much of the post–Cold War period, the United Kingdom invested relatively little in homeland air and missile defense. Long-range ballistic threats were seen...

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

Engineers have long looked to origami and kirigami for inspiration when designing lightweight structures that can transform shape without relying on complex mechanical systems....

Striking targets deep behind enemy lines has become increasingly difficult as air defense systems grow more capable and layered. Ground-launched missiles often face range...
