The Pentagon recently embarked on an ambitious journey to implement artificial intelligence (AI) tools across logistics, maintenance, and intelligence functions. Expectations were high: AI...

Advanced military systems increasingly depend on civilian technologies that scale fast, iterate quickly, and draw on dense supply chains. Drones, electric propulsion, sensors, and...

Modern intelligence collection is facing a structural problem. Traditional spy satellites are powerful but scarce, expensive, and vulnerable. With only a handful in orbit,...

As drone threats grow in range, speed, and sophistication, many existing counter-UAS systems struggle to keep up. Ground-based radars are limited by terrain, jammers...

The Pentagon is accelerating its push into military artificial intelligence by integrating Grok, the generative AI model developed by xAI, into its secure digital...

Modern battlefields are shaped as much by the electromagnetic spectrum as by physical terrain. Communications, sensors, navigation signals, and targeting systems all depend on...

Modern military drones rely heavily on satellite navigation to orient themselves, map terrain, and support ground forces. In environments where GPS or GNSS signals...

As unmanned systems become more common, the challenge is no longer just flying a drone, but managing many of them at once. In current...

Modern unmanned systems rely heavily on satellite navigation, but in many operational environments GPS has become a fragile resource. Adversaries now routinely jam or...

Modern military operations rely heavily on understanding and shaping the electromagnetic environment. Radar emissions, jamming signals, and electronic intelligence streams can shift rapidly, leaving...

One of the main constraints on unmanned aerial systems has always been endurance. Even large drones with long range are limited by fuel capacity,...

Browser extensions have long been treated as harmless productivity tools, but their growing access to sensitive data is becoming a serious security concern. As...

Cyber operations are increasingly seen as a way to shape the battlefield before the first aircraft or ground unit moves. Power grids, communications networks,...

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

Envision a critical operational scenario in the future battlespace: swarms of autonomous drones tasked with real-time data analysis, identifying emergent threats, and executing complex...

Modern militaries are generating more data than ever before, but turning that data into timely battlefield advantage remains a challenge. Sensors, drones, logistics systems,...

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...

In an era where cyber threats evolve at an alarming pace and operational quietude can be disrupted at any moment, the traditional approach to...

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

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...

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....

Modern armored vehicles have become increasingly difficult to defeat as active protection systems, reactive armor, and rapid maneuvering continue to advance. Conventional anti-tank weapons...
