Survivability & Protection

Unmanned systems are increasingly used across modern operations, but they often function separately. Ground robots provide mobility and access to difficult terrain, while aerial...

Naval mines remain one of the most persistent threats in maritime security. Relatively inexpensive and easy to deploy, they can disrupt shipping lanes, block...

Carrier-based aviation is under pressure to extend its operational reach while reducing the workload on manned aircraft. Fighter jets are often tasked not only...

Small unmanned aerial systems have become an increasingly common challenge for naval forces. Surveillance drones can track ship movements, collect targeting information, and operate...

When a fire alarm sounds, most people instinctively head toward the nearest exit. The problem is that the closest route is not always the...

Over the past several decades, nations and armed organizations have invested heavily in moving strategic assets underground. Combat tunnels, bunkers, ammunition depots, command centers,...

The State of Israel is making all the efforts to block the spread of the coronavirus. Now, iHLS is addressing the technology and startup...

Large-scale emergencies often trigger a secondary crisis: the sudden loss of communications. Floods, fires, earthquakes, or cyberattacks can knock out established infrastructure within minutes,...

As aerial threats become more diverse and harder to detect, many countries are reassessing how well their air defenses can cope with modern risks....

Archer, a U.S.-based company, has been selected to integrate its advanced electric propulsion system into the "Omen" unmanned air vehicle (UAV). The Omen UAV...

Naval forces are under increasing pressure to monitor vast maritime areas, protect critical sea lanes, and respond quickly to emerging threats—often with limited numbers...

Long-range unmanned strike systems are reshaping how smaller forces think about reach and deterrence. Until recently, extended-range attack drones were largely the domain of...

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...

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...

Hand edema can significantly limit mobility, reduce grip strength and complicate recovery following injury, surgery or chronic illness. Standard treatments often rely on manual...

Robots designed to detect and track chemical sources, such as gas leaks, explosives, or hazardous materials, typically rely on multiple sensors working in perfect...

Modern ground forces are under increasing pressure to operate with less exposure while maintaining mobility and firepower. Carrying heavy equipment, securing movement routes, and...

As hypersonic weapons development accelerates, one of the key challenges has been integration, meaning how to effectively deploy these large, high-speed systems from existing...

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

Modern military systems are becoming increasingly software-driven and interconnected. Sensors, drones, command-and-control platforms, electronic warfare systems, and weapons must all work together across air,...

The autonomous vehicle industry has advanced more slowly than many sensor companies anticipated when they built their business strategies over the past decade. As...

Commercial shipping, tourism and cruise ship traffic to the Norwegian northern archipelago of Svalbard and the surrounding marine areas have all grown dramatically in...
