The Tech That Beats Bad Signals to the Punch
Modern battlefields are shaped as much by the electromagnetic spectrum as by physical terrain. Communications, sensors, navigation signals, and targeting systems all depend on...
Why Future Battlefield Drones May Not Need GPS at All
Modern military drones rely heavily on satellite navigation to orient themselves, map terrain, and support ground forces. In environments where GPS or GNSS signals...
One Person, a Whole Swarm: The Drone Control Breakthrough
As unmanned systems become more common, the challenge is no longer just flying a drone, but managing many of them at once. In current...
When GPS Goes Dark, This Drone Keeps Flying
Modern unmanned systems rely heavily on satellite navigation, but in many operational environments GPS has become a fragile resource. Adversaries now routinely jam or...
AI and EW Team Up to Outsmart Enemy Radars
Modern military operations rely heavily on understanding and shaping the electromagnetic environment. Radar emissions, jamming signals, and electronic intelligence streams can shift rapidly, leaving...
How Cyberattacks Were Used to Open the Door for Military Strikes:...
Cyber operations are increasingly seen as a way to shape the battlefield before the first aircraft or ground unit moves. Power grids, communications networks,...
Forget Contractors: These Drones Are Built by Airmen Themselves
Modern air forces are under growing pressure to adapt quickly to a battlefield where unmanned systems evolve faster than traditional procurement cycles. Commercial drones...
This Stealth UAV Is Built to Scout Ahead of the Strike
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...
The Radar Upgrade That Could Keep a Cold-War Bomber Flying 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,...
Less Noise, More Time in the Air: A New Kind of...
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...
Another Country Joins the Trend With a Strategic Shift To a...
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....
This Deep-Strike Drone Doesn’t Rush—It Circles Until You Slip Up
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...
Long Range, No Crew: The Drone Boat Changing Naval Operations
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 New Combat Partner: What Humanoid Robots Could Mean for Modern...
Modern militaries are facing a growing challenge: how to carry out dangerous missions in threat-saturated environments without risking human lives. Urban warfare, tunnel infiltration,...
New SIGINT Prototype Aims to Keep Units Connected When Signals Disappear
Modern military operations depend on uninterrupted communication and rapid data sharing, yet many battlefields are anything but cooperative. Urban density, electronic warfare, and natural...
Engineers Flip the Script with a Reverse-Engineered Drone
Modern militaries face a growing challenge: traditional unmanned aircraft such as MALE-class drones offer advanced ISR and strike capabilities, but their high cost and...
The Counter-UAS Platform That Connects Everything in Real Time
The rapid spread of unmanned aerial systems has made airspace security more complex for military forces and critical facilities. Small drones are increasingly capable,...
Phones Can Now Disappear From Cellular Tracking — Here’s How
For decades, mobile phones have relied on a fixed network identifier that quietly follows users wherever they go. Known as the International Mobile Subscriber...
Smart Radar Assistant Helps Ships Steer Clear of Danger
Marine collisions with fixed offshore structures—such as oil platforms, abandoned wellheads, and navigational hazards—remain a persistent problem for commercial operators and coastal authorities. These...
The Shape-Shifting “Octo Robot” Built for Stealth
Robots intended for complex natural environments face a familiar problem: rigid bodies and fixed-color surfaces make them easy to detect and limit their ability...
Meet the Mini Drone That Flips Like a Bug and Navigates...
Autonomous flight at insect scale has long been a challenge in robotics. Existing microrobots can hover or move along controlled paths, but they typically...
A New Foldable Drone is Built for Long Flights and Fast...
Border surveillance and wide-area monitoring often require small unmanned aircraft that can stay airborne for extended periods, carry multiple sensor types, and operate reliably...
