Locating submarines has always been one of the hardest challenges in maritime security. These vessels rely on stealth, operate across vast ocean areas, and...

Naval mines remain one of the most disruptive and persistent threats in maritime operations. They are relatively simple to deploy but difficult and time-consuming...

Robots are increasingly deployed in environments that are unsafe or inaccessible for humans, from collapsed buildings and underground tunnels to industrial sites and disaster...

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...

Naval mines remain a quiet but persistent danger. Cheap to deploy and difficult to detect, they can block ports, restrict maneuver, and threaten both...

Underwater operations present a persistent challenge for both humans and machines. Visibility is often limited, communication is constrained, and navigation can quickly become uncertain....

Airspace security has reached a frustrating paradox. Drones are easier than ever to detect, yet safely stopping them remains a persistent challenge. Airports across...

Tracking submarines across vast ocean areas is one of the most resource-intensive missions in naval operations. Traditional platforms, such as crewed ships and aircraft,...

Stories of invisible weapons tend to surface after fast, asymmetric operations. When defenders are overwhelmed quickly, especially by a smaller force, the search for...

Undersea threats are becoming harder to counter. Modern torpedoes are faster, quieter, and more capable of adjusting their course mid-run, leaving ships with very...

Researchers from Princeton and MIT have uncovered a method for intercepting underwater communications, challenging long-standing assumptions about the security of sonar transmissions. By using...

Operating helicopters in the North Atlantic has always carried high risk. Harsh weather, long distances, and the growing presence of submarines make maritime aviation...

As small drones become more accessible and harder to detect, traditional air defense methods are facing growing limitations. Many systems rely on radar or...

Calling all defense-tech startups! Don’t miss out on the exciting opportunity to participate in the Defense-Tech Startup Competition at the Global Defense Tech Summit...

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...

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...

BAE Systems has secured a $70 million contract to manufacture missile tubes for the U.S. Navy’s Block VI Virginia-class submarines, significantly enhancing the firepower...

On modern battlefields, artillery and mortar fire can strike within seconds of launch. Detecting the origin of gunfire quickly is critical for both force...

As unmanned systems expand across air and land domains, underwater autonomy is becoming an increasingly important area of military development. Traditional submarines remain highly...

Researchers at Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI) in Massachusetts are developing small aerial robots that rely on sound rather than cameras to navigate, offering new...

Monitoring activity beneath the ocean surface remains one of the most complex challenges in maritime operations. Traditional sonar systems provide valuable acoustic data, but...

Detecting extremely weak vibrations usually requires complex electronics, amplification circuits, and continuous signal processing. Whether in microphones, environmental monitoring systems, or biomedical devices, improving...
