For the second time, North Korea presents its latest generation of Main Battle Tank (MBT) during a military parade that was held on February 9, 2023. The tank was unveiled for the first time to the public in October 2020 at the military parade marking the 75th anniversary of the foundation of the WPK (Worker's Party of Korea).
During the latest military parade held on January 26, 2023, to commemorate the Republic Day of India, a new anti-tank armored vehicle called NAMIS or NAMICA (NAG Missile System) was showcased. It is based on a BMP-2 tracked armored chassis and is fitted with a weapon station with six ready-to-fire NAG anti-tank guided missiles.
Lockheed Martin achieved first light from the Directed Energy Interceptor for Maneuver Short-Range Air Defense System (DEIMOS) system, which verifies that the laser’s optical performance parameters align with the system design parameters.
Northrop Grumman, AT&T and Fujitsu recently demonstrated 5G-enabled intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) capabilities in Northrop Grumman’s new 5G lab. The demonstration integrated radios with Northrop Grumman’s tactical data links, AT&T’s private 5G network and Fujitsu’s Open Radio Access Network (O-RAN) to transmit ISR data and video, proving our strength in connecting the battlespace. This is a critical step in building the digital battle network to support multi-domain operations.
On January 13, 2023, Swedish company BAE Systems Hägglunds Örnsköldsvik published a video showing the firepower and mobility of its CV90120 light tank. In the CV90 family, BAE Systems has developed a concept of a light tank version that is armed with a 120 mm high-pressure low-recoil smoothbore gun offering firepower and mobility of a Main Battle Tank (MBT) but with a combat weight of fewer than 40 tons.
The European Defence Agency (EDA) launched a new project on 13 January to improve the technology behind automatic targeting, as well as in threat recognition and identification, as European militaries seek to make soldiers and weapons systems more effective in battle.
In war stories across a multitude of mediums, there is often a moment where a Soldier shouts into a radio to some unseen entity on the receiving end of the line. Whether it is giving a direct command or delivering information, this format of communication has been in rotation within the Army since the 1940s with the “manpack” radio, which was a relatively heavy radio that could be carried by a Soldier in a ruck. Sgt. 1st Class Michael Reinsch, Army News Service, reports.
The U.S. Army is putting new emphasis on using technology, including artificial intelligence and machine learning, to speed up the “kill chain” process of locating and firing on targets, said a panel of experts at Technical Exchange Meeting 9, or TEM 9, a gathering of industry and military experts. Doug Graham, Network CFT, elaborates.
The U.S. Department of Defense is modernizing its approach for developing medical countermeasures to protect warfighters from novel biological agents. David Vergun, U..S DoD, explains.
According to a video published on January 8, 2023, the Turkish company HAVELSAN conducted a successful live firing test with its BARKAN UGV (Unmanned Ground Vehicle) armed with mini guided missile METE developed by the Turkish company Roketsan.
The United States Army recently completed rigorous testing with the Israeli-made Iron Fist APS (Active protection system) mounted on Bradley tracked armored IFV (Infantry Fighting Vehicle). The Iron Fist Light Decoupled Active Protection System achieved further improved performance in recent live-fire testing on the Bradley Infantry Fighting Vehicle.
What formerly belonged to the realm of science fiction has become reality for U.S. soldiers, with advances enabling them to fight and win with next-generation technology. Joint Manufacturing and Technology Center will help distribute one of these advances to soldiers across the Army and in the field, a mixed-reality headset called the Integrated Visual Augmentation System, or IVAS, in partnership with Program Executive Office (PEO) Soldier. Debralee Lutgen, US Army, reports.
On its Facebook account the Thai Defense Technology Institute (DTI), announced that DTI has conducted firing tests with the new D-Lion 4x4 armored vehicle equipped with a Remotely Operated Weapon Station (ROWS) armed with one 12.7mm heavy machine gun.
The German army conducted its first live firing with the Wiesel 1 MELLS, an airborne anti-tank light tracked armored vehicle. The vehicle is now in service with the airborne mountain troops of the German army.
Army Recognition editorial team had the chance to visit the production line of the German-made Puma, one of the most modern tracked IFV (Infantry Fighting Vehicle) in the world. We were able to discover exclusively the manufacturing secrets of this combat vehicle which include the latest innovations and technologies in terms of mobility, protection, and armament.
On December 14, 2022, the German army released pictures showing the new Wiesel 1 MELLS, a new anti-tank light airborne tracked armored vehicle which is now entered into service. The new anti-tank vehicle is based on the Wiesel 1 air-transportable armored weapon carrier vehicles which were delivered to the German Army between 1989 and 1992.
