The robotization of arms and hardware is a breakthrough achievement of the XXI century which will exert a major impact on the concept and forms of engagement of the armed forces of the developed nations in the foreseeable future, the Military-Industrial Courier writes.
According to U.S. Army Medical Research and Materiel Command, bleeding is the leading case of death on the battlefield. When service members receive serious wounds, they are often transported to a surgical team for treatment. These casualties often suffer from severe blood loss due to the inability of their blood to clot normally, which represent approximately 40 percent of combat casualties. Sgt.

Drone attacks continue to strike all over the world. After the major incident at London Gatwick airport causing travel disruption for more than a day, the recent attack on two Saudi oil facilities or Aramco caused significant damages and the biggest jump in oil prices ever. HGH focused its latest developments against drone attacks to offer the security's industry the most advanced UAV surveillance solutions.
Shvabe Holding of Rostec created a camera of short wavelength infrared range (SWIR) which weighs only 100 grams. The device with a new Russian lens can be mounted on drones of GoPro class suspension. SWIR camera can be used in limited visibility to monitor high-temperature processes, Rostec said.
Pearls are inspiring a U.S. Army research project to improve military armor. By mimicking the outer coating of pearls (nacre), researchers at University at Buffalo, funded by the Army Research Office (ARO), created a lightweight plastic that is 14 times stronger and eight times lighter (less dense) than steel and ideal for absorbing the impact of bullets and other projectiles.
The Russian army will get radars based on revolutionary photonic technology. They will identify sophisticated objects and find small targets even in a heavily jammed space.
Russia is testing a new radar with artificial intelligence elements for long-range target detection and guidance provision to aircraft and air defense missiles.
The U.S. Army plans to embed virtual system training capabilities into its future helicopters and next-generation combat vehicles, said a senior leader of the Army's Combined Arms Center. Joe Lacdan reports on U.S. Army’s website.
Addressing the increasing demand for protection of vehicles and convoys against hostile drones, Elbit Systems is introducing ReDrone Vehicular Tactical System, a vehicular configuration of the Company's operational anti-drone protection and neutralization system.
The Defense Department wants to use AI for a wide range of applications, including predictive maintenance, image analysis, cybersecurity and training. The U.S. Army will use AI-enhanced training to improve military readiness and help troops remain ready to “fight tonight,” according to several Raytheon experts in the field.
The U.S. Army awarded two contracts as it advances the fielding of a prototype hypersonic weapon by Fiscal Year 2023. Nancy Jones-Bonbrest, U.S. Army RCCTO, reports.
The U.S. Army and Northrop Grumman successfully intercepted a cruise missile at an extended range during today’s flight test using the Army Integrated Air and Missile Defense (IAMD) Battle Command System (IBCS) with Sentinel and Patriot radars and a Patriot Advanced Capability-3 (PAC-3) interceptor. The flight test demonstrated the value of IBCS to detect, track and engage the low-flying threat at a distance well beyond the range limitation of the current Patriot system.
Domo Tactical Communications (DTC), the wireless communications specialist, celebrates recent successes in trials demonstrating its SOL8SDR-H as a MANET Mesh Soldier Data Radio, proving compatibility with ATAK and other situational awareness applications.
Analysis and technical review about the most modern Naval RWS Remote Weapon Station or Remotely Controlled Operated Weapon Station available on the current military market by Army Recognition editorial team.
Russia, the United States, France, Germany, China, and Israel are the leaders in tank construction. They all upgrade the available vehicles. Some countries, including Russia, are designing unmanned tanks, the Army Standard writes.
Russian army Brigades of Iskander-M and Tochka-U missiles have been armed with Orlan-10 drones and quadcopters. The units are now able to better detect and destroy targets. The drones will also protect the weapons from subversion. Experts believe drones will make missile formations more autonomous and practically invulnerable for the adversary, the Izvestia daily writes.
