This UAV Flies Longer by Staying Cooler and Quieter
Unmanned aerial vehicles used for long-range reconnaissance face a familiar set of tradeoffs. Internal combustion engines offer endurance but generate noise and heat that...
The Sea Drone That Hunts Mines at Helicopter Speeds
Naval mines remain a quiet but persistent danger. Cheap to deploy and difficult to detect, they can block ports, restrict maneuver, and threaten both...
The Airborne Interceptor Built for Persistent Threats
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...
This Weapon Blurs the Line Between Drone and Missile
Modern air defenses are forcing strike systems to evolve rapidly. Weapons that once relied on persistence and operator control are now expected to reach...
Why Future Ground Robots Won’t Need Pre-Programmed Gaits
Robots are often expected to operate where wheels fail: collapsed buildings, uneven ground, mud, ice, or debris-covered floors. Yet most legged robots still struggle...
From Hobby Tool to Battlefield Asset: Zeus FPV Drones Enter Active...
Modern battlefields are increasingly shaped by small, fast, and expendable aerial systems. Forces operating under constant surveillance and electronic warfare pressure need tools that...
The Combat Helmet That Does More Than Stop Bullets
Modern infantry operate in environments saturated with threats and information. Ballistic danger, laser exposure, electronic noise, and the constant need to process data from...
When Helicopters Start Acting Like Control Towers
Modern military aviation faces a growing coordination problem. As drones, sensors, and crewed platforms multiply, commanders are often forced to juggle disconnected systems that...
The Tech Giving Armored Vehicles a 360-Degree Safety Net
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...
No Wires, No Signals: The First Truly Autonomous Micro-Robots
Robots have steadily become smaller, cheaper, and more capable—but until now, true autonomy stopped at around the millimeter scale. Below that threshold, conventional designs...
The 360° Awareness Tech Built for Machines That Can’t Afford Blind...
Autonomous systems struggle most at close range. While long-distance sensing is relatively mature, many accidents and failures occur within tens of meters, where blind...
This Jet-Powered Drone Can Fight Without Giving Away Its Position
Air combat is becoming increasingly complex as threats multiply and reaction times shrink. Pilots are expected to manage dense sensor data, coordinate with multiple...
The Control System Built to Command Many Drones at Once
Modern military operations increasingly rely on unmanned systems, but coordinating them effectively remains a challenge. Drones operating in the air, on the surface, or...
Drone Maps Solo: Is This the Future?
The gap between the theoretical capabilities of drones and their proven performance in the field remains a persistent challenge. According to the Drone Center...
Stacking the Shield: A New Approach to Sky Protection
Air and missile defense planners are facing a rapidly widening threat spectrum. Beyond traditional aircraft, modern forces must contend with ballistic missiles, cruise missiles,...
Why Modern Air Combat Needs Unmanned Wingmen
Modern air operations are becoming increasingly crowded and dangerous. Advanced air defenses, long-range sensors, and rising aircraft costs make every manned sortie a calculated...
Seeing What’s Hidden: A New Way to Spot Explosives
Security agencies continue to face a difficult tradeoff when screening for explosives and hazardous chemicals. Imaging systems such as X-ray and millimeter-wave scanners can...
There’s More Than One Way to Control A Swarm of Drones
A growing need on the modern battlefield is to deploy vast numbers of low-cost, autonomous systems rather than relying on expensive, manned platforms. This...
The Tech That Lets Armored Vehicles See in Every Direction
Armored vehicles operate in some of the most demanding and visually restrictive environments on the battlefield. Dust, smoke, darkness, urban clutter, and limited sightlines...
The Border That Watches Its Back
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...
