Counter-UAV

Naval air defense is under growing strain. Small, low-cost drones are increasingly used to probe or saturate warships, forcing crews to rely on missiles...

Written by Or Shalom The 2026 FIFA World Cup, set to be jointly hosted by the United States, Mexico and Canada, is not merely another...

The rapid spread of small unmanned aerial systems on today’s battlefield has created a new challenge for attack helicopters. Platforms originally optimized for engaging...

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...

Drone swarms have become one of the defining threats of the current Ukraine-Russia conflict. Low-cost unmanned aerial vehicles can be launched in large numbers...

Small, commercially available drones have become a persistent security problem for military bases, borders, and critical infrastructure. They are inexpensive, easy to operate, and...

Countering long-range attack drones has become a persistent challenge for air defense planners. Low-cost, long-endurance UAVs can loiter for hours and strike far from...

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

Modern military aviation faces a growing coordination problem. As drones, sensors, and crewed platforms multiply, commanders are often forced to juggle disconnected systems that...

Air defenses are increasingly being shaped by the types of threats they face. Slow, propeller-driven drones are relatively easy to detect and engage once...

Armored vehicles are facing a wider and more complex threat environment than ever before. Alongside traditional anti-tank missiles and rocket-propelled grenades, modern battlefields are...

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

Navies are facing a growing challenge offshore: how to maintain persistent awareness and protection across vast maritime areas without tying up crewed vessels for...

Modern borders are increasingly difficult to defend with traditional means alone. Fast-moving ground forces, low-flying drones, cyber interference, and long-range missiles compress reaction times...

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...

A growing challenge for modern forces is the rapid spread of unmanned threats across air and maritime domains. Small drones and unmanned surface vessels...

In recent years, the defense establishment has been facing a dual challenge. On the one hand, there is a growing need for fast, flexible...

Heavy armored warfare is entering a transition period. Legacy main battle tanks remain lethal, but they are increasingly challenged by precision anti-tank weapons, drones,...

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...

Modern warfare is increasingly shaped by technologies that operate beyond traditional bullets and bombs. As conflicts move into dense urban areas and contested electromagnetic...

Modern main battle tanks were designed to defeat threats coming from the front and sides. Today, that assumption no longer holds. Inexpensive first-person-view drones...

Small drones are no longer a niche threat. From improvised FPV strike platforms to loitering munitions and coordinated swarms, unmanned aircraft are exploiting gaps...
