Radar

Optical satellites provide valuable imagery from orbit, but they have a well-known limitation: they depend on visibility. Clouds, storms, smoke, darkness, and atmospheric conditions...

The growing variety of drone threats is creating a new challenge for air-defense operators. Modern battlefields can include everything from commercial quadcopters and first-person-view...

Modern electronic warfare increasingly revolves around one challenge: finding signals that are designed not to be found. Advanced radar systems now use low-probability-of-intercept waveforms,...

As small drones become faster, cheaper, and more numerous, traditional radar systems are facing a growing challenge. Most electronically scanned array (ESA) radars detect...

Unmanned aerial systems are taking on increasingly complex missions, from reconnaissance and border monitoring to strike operations and electronic surveillance. But as drones move...

Modern surveillance operations increasingly demand radar systems that can detect smaller targets, operate across multiple environments, and integrate quickly onto different platforms. Traditional systems...

Modern air operations depend heavily on airborne early warning aircraft to detect threats, coordinate forces, and manage complex engagements across large areas. But many...

Detecting hypersonic missiles remains one of the most difficult challenges in modern air defense. Traveling at speeds above Mach 5, these weapons generate extreme...

The growing use of small drones is creating a new operational burden: countering them often requires trained specialists, dedicated equipment, and time-consuming setup. In...

The rapid growth of aerial threats, from long-range aircraft to small, low-flying drones, has exposed limitations in traditional radar systems. Detecting objects at extended...

The modern battlefield is becoming increasingly crowded and complex. Drones, sensors, cameras, radars, and weapons systems all operate simultaneously, generating enormous volumes of data....

The growing use of small, low-cost drones is creating new challenges for air defense systems. Many of these platforms are difficult to detect using...

Written by Or Shalom The Milipol TechX Summit (MTX) 2026, which opened on April 28th, 2026, at the Sands Expo Convention Center in Singapore, marks...

Modern air defense systems are becoming increasingly dense and sophisticated, making it harder for conventional aircraft to operate inside contested airspace. Long-range missiles offer...

Naval forces are increasingly looking for ways to extend reach and firepower without exposing crews to risk. Traditional vessels offer capability but come with...

Small drones are increasingly used in environments where visibility is limited, such as collapsed buildings, smoke-filled structures, and dense vegetation, but most navigation systems...

The rapid rise of drone warfare has exposed a key limitation in traditional radar systems. Small, low-flying drones are difficult to detect, especially when...

Autonomous vehicles and mobile robots rely on cameras, LiDAR and other sensors to navigate safely. These systems perform well within direct line of sight,...

The rapid spread of small drones on the battlefield is exposing a persistent weakness in traditional air defense: low-altitude coverage. Quadcopters and loitering munitions...

Airspace surveillance is becoming more complex as traffic density increases and new types of aircraft operate at lower altitudes. Air traffic controllers are often...

Modern air operations increasingly depend on the electromagnetic spectrum. Radar, communications links, targeting networks and drone control systems all rely on uninterrupted access to...

Airspace management is under growing pressure. Traffic density continues to rise, low-altitude operations are expanding, and controllers are often forced to rely on a...
