Locating radioactive material quickly is one of the most difficult challenges facing emergency and security services. Hazardous sources can be extremely small, mobile, and...

Seeing clearly in low visibility remains one of the hardest problems for modern forces. Smoke, fog, darkness, and cluttered terrain all degrade traditional optics,...

Finnish AI startup raises €120M for defense.

Modern military operations unfold simultaneously in the air, at sea, on land, in space and in cyberspace. Yet for decades, command-and-control systems were largely...

Modern naval operations are increasingly shaped by uncertainty. Fleets must operate across wide areas, integrate manned and unmanned platforms, and function under conditions where...

Stealth aircraft designers have long faced a hard tradeoff. Flying-wing bombers offer excellent range, efficiency, and low radar visibility, but they pay a price...

Clearing naval mines remains one of the most dangerous and time-consuming tasks at sea. Mines can sit on the seabed for decades, threatening shipping...

Entering a burning structure remains one of the most dangerous tasks for emergency responders. Extreme heat, toxic smoke, and unstable interiors often prevent crews...

Remote-controlled aircraft have become increasingly capable, but most designs still keep pilots at a distance. Even with onboard cameras, the experience is usually about...

Small units operating at the edge of the battlefield often face a familiar problem: they need precision strike capability, but traditional close air support...

Small drones are already reshaping ground combat, but most weaponized variants still struggle with accuracy. Recoil, vibration, wind, and constant micro-movements make it difficult...

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...

For more than two decades, homeland missile defense has relied on an interceptor architecture originally fielded in the early 2000s. That system was designed...

Maritime collisions remain a stubborn and costly problem. Despite modern sensors and navigation aids, ships still strike offshore platforms, port infrastructure, and anchored vessels...

Space-based thermal imaging satellites

Modern air defenses are becoming denser, faster, and more layered, making traditional strike missions increasingly risky. Advanced surface-to-air missile systems force attacking aircraft to...

Power grids were never designed for the load and risk profile they face today. Aging infrastructure, rising electricity demand, extreme weather, and tighter safety...

Modern naval forces are under growing pressure to project power while remaining difficult to detect. As long-range precision weapons become more widespread, large surface...

Modern military aircraft operate in increasingly contested airspace. Portable surface-to-air missiles, radar-guided threats, and improvised munitions pose constant risks to rotary- and fixed-wing platforms...

Undersea operations present a persistent challenge: distance and endurance. Oceans are vast, and autonomous underwater vehicles must travel long ranges before reaching their mission...

Modern air operations are being stretched by distance, cost, and risk. Fighter aircraft are expected to operate deeper into contested airspace, while facing increasingly...
