Survivability & Protection

Electronic warfare has become one of the defining features of modern conflict. Jamming systems can disrupt satellite navigation, interfere with communications, and reduce the...

Keeping frontline units supplied has always been one of the most dangerous tasks in military operations. Vehicles carrying ammunition, equipment, and spare parts often...

High-energy laser weapons are steadily moving from development programs into operational military service, but maintaining them in the field remains a significant challenge. One...

One of the biggest challenges facing autonomous vehicles and robotic vision systems is adapting to rapidly changing lighting conditions. Cameras that perform well during...

Sixth-generation combat aircraft are expected to reshape future air combat by combining low observability, long-range operations, advanced sensors, artificial intelligence, and close cooperation with...

Artificial intelligence is becoming an essential part of modern military systems, but deploying it in operational environments presents a challenge. Aircraft, drones, satellites, and...

As drones become increasingly common along national borders and around critical infrastructure, detecting them is only part of the challenge. Border security agencies also...

This week, another workshop was held as part of the INNOFENSE program, the innovation center operated by iHLS in collaboration with Israel’s Ministry of...

Designing underwater robots that can move efficiently and adapt to changing currents remains a complex challenge. Traditional systems rely on external sensors and pre-programmed...

Small drones have become one of the fastest-growing threats on the modern battlefield. Whether used for reconnaissance, target acquisition, or carrying explosive payloads, they...

Night operations have become a standard part of modern military activity, but many frontline troops still rely on night vision technology designed more than...

Small drones have become one of the most challenging threats facing security forces in recent years. Their compact size, low-altitude flight profiles, and minimal...

Drone swarms are posing an increasing challenge to air-defense systems. Small, unmanned aircraft can be launched in large numbers, attack from multiple directions, and...

Modern military operations generate enormous amounts of information. Intelligence, logistics, fires, maneuver, protection, and communications all need to be coordinated across multiple units, often...

The growing number of low-flying drones, together with the emergence of more advanced platforms—including fiber-optic-guided UAVs—is creating an increasing challenge for detection and surveillance...

Firefighters frequently operate in environments where collapsing structures, intense heat, toxic smoke, and rapidly changing conditions pose significant risks. Entering these areas to extinguish...

Traditional robots are typically built around rigid frames, motors, gears, and joints. While this design works well in structured environments, it becomes less effective...

Modern armored vehicles operate in increasingly complex environments where threats can emerge from any direction. Urban combat, drone attacks, poor weather, smoke, and nighttime...

Written By Or Shalom Over the past decade—and particularly in recent years—the lower airspace domain has evolved from a regulatory gray area into one of...

Amphibious assaults are among the most dangerous military operations. Landing forces on a hostile shoreline typically exposes troops to artillery, machine-gun fire, mines and...

Small autonomous drones have enormous potential for inspecting tunnels, warehouses, industrial facilities, and disaster zones. However, one limitation continues to hold them back: creating...

Small drones have become one of the most difficult threats on the modern battlefield. Unlike larger aircraft, they are small, fast, and highly maneuverable,...
