Early renderings of DARPA's LongShot attack drone show what looks like a stealthy platform, and General Atomics has begun flight testing its LongShot Drone though its deal with DARPA to develop a stealthy armed air-to-air-combat capable drone.

While the U.S. is pursuing a stealthy armed “long-shot” attack drone with DARPA and industry, the RQ-170 is not armed and platforms such as the B-2 are of course manned

The Pentagon's relentless pursuit of an armed, carrier-launched stealth drone like the UCLASS may find renewed urgency as China pushes forward with its GJ-11, echoing a race for dominance in next-gen, stealthy strike capabilities.

Attacking rockets, missiles, drones and aircraft will soon be incinerated from a new Israeli ground-based laser weapon slated for operational deployment next year.

a lesser-known yet equally vital element of the USS Ford is that the ship has been “hardened” for a new generation of maritime warfare with an upgraded suite of weapons and layered ship-defense systems

A YU-20 tanker aircraft of the Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) Air Force and a J-15 carrier-based fighter jet of the PLA Navy have conducted their first in-flight refueling exercise.

US Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin sees the deployment of North Korean troops to Russia as a “dangerous and destabilizing escalation” to the war in Ukraine.

Some of the innovations woven into the vehicle sound somewhat similar to upgrades the U.S. Army has made to its Abrams tank. For example, available specs on the T-90 say the tank's 125mm Smoothbore main gun can fire High-Explosive Anti-Tank (HEAT) rounds as well HE-FRAG or fragmentation projectiles to improve anti-personnel lethality.

A group of committed ARL scientists are working on advanced, AI-enabled computer algorithms designed to support real-time manned-unmanned “machine learning” wherein human input can enable an autonomous drone to essentially “learn” or “adapt” behaviors in response to certain contingencies.

What if tanks could deploy AI drones to autonomously scout and engage enemies? This revolutionary tech could redefine battlefield strategy.
