Future of radar technology in warfareSince the technological parameters are fast changing, the radar systems are making lot of changes where it is being combined with advanced materials, solid-state modules, digital signal processors, and complex A-D converters that can give a better look to military and civilian users who need the best possible capability in […]

Marine robotics could play a bigger in naval warfare Maritime challenges and naval warfare are adopting new generation of technologies to reduce risk to  sea battle and this is going to change the nature of surveillance and naval operations. The harshness of the maritime environment poses great challenges to marine robots, and they must be […]

Underwater Unmanned Vehicle use in modern naval warfare Most navies are now setting their eyes in acquiring state of the art underwater unmanned vehicle which can not only boost their surveillance and reconnaissance capability but also enhance tremendously the attack capacity which cannot be detected easily. Recently, as the development of advanced science technology and […]

Robotic technology and use of UAV in battle zoneThe role of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) in modern warfare has evolved with each successive conflict, from naval gunfire support during the 1991 Gulf War to real time satellite relay of video over Kosovo in 1999 to attacking mobile Al Qaeda fighters in Afghanistan in 2002/2003. Afghanistan […]

Detecting and stopping small unmanned air systems The rapid evolution of small unmanned air system (sUAS) technologies is fueling the exponential growth of the commercial drone sector, creating new asymmetric threats for warfighters. DARPA’s Mobile Force Protection (MFP) program seeks to develop an integrated system capable of defeating self-guided sUAS (i.e., those that do not […]

Radar technology and its significance The battlefield scenario is continuously changing with sophisticated emerging technologies and therefore the operational environment of modern radar systems is becoming increasingly more complex. Stealthy, long-range, high altitude, high speed, manoeuvering targets, intense jamming environment, large fluctuations of radar cross-section with small change of aspect angle of targets, pose challenges […]
