Developments in Hypersonic Missile Technology

Hypersonic means any vehicle moving at a speed exceeding five times the speed of sound or Mach five, with regard to missile technology. Such missiles can change their course at high speeds, and they are thus very hard to discern and shoot down. Modern hypersonic missile is significantly faster than traditional missiles; it can cover vast distance and strike with good precision, which is why it occupies a priority place in modern defences. It is their development that is changing the nature of military, and the strategies of world defence.........Know More

Next-Generation Stealth Technology for Aircraft and Naval Vessels

Stealth has become the single biggest game changer in contemporary warfare by changing the way aircraft, naval ships, and most other platforms are designed and used on contemporary battlefields. The aspects of stealth are very important because, through them, a mission remains a secret and there is a high chance of success. Speculating on stealth technology in avionics and naval vessels, this article outlines some of the milestones within the technology, ranging from the 117 Nighthawk to the Air Force B2 Spirit and B2 bombers.......Know More

Advancements in Directed Energy Weapons (DEWs)

Directed Energy Weapons (DEWs) are a novel concept at a preliminary stage of transformations in the existing environment of modern warfare in the present century, which has the potential to rise as a primary focal area towards building new efficient military-technical tools and solutions. Such novel weapons include high-energy lasers (HEL), particle beam weapons, and high-powered microwave (HPM) systems, which are accurate, potent, and economically efficient compared to traditional tools. In this article, we describe DEW developments, specify key components like LWS, alongside HPRF, MMWs and explore their combination with unmanned aerial vehicles and missile defense systems.......Know More

NASA Decides to Bring Starliner Spacecraft Back to Earth Without Crew

NASA will return Boeing's Starliner to Earth without astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams aboard the spacecraft, the agency announced Saturday. The uncrewed return allows NASA and Boeing to continue gathering testing data on Starliner during its upcoming flight home, while also not accepting more risk than necessary for its crew. Wilmore and Williams, who flew to the International Space Station in June aboard NASA's Boeing Crew Flight Test, have been busy supporting station research, maintenance, and Starliner system testing and data analysis, among other activities.

"Spaceflight is risky, even at its safest and most routine. A test flight, by nature, is neither safe, nor routine. The decision to keep Butch and Suni aboard the International Space Station and bring Boeing's Starliner home uncrewed is the result of our commitment to safety: our core value and our North Star," said NASA Administrator Bill Nelson. "I'm grateful to both the NASA and Boeing teams for all their incredible and detailed work........Know More

Joby Demonstrates Autonomous Flight in United States Air Force ‘Agile Flag’ Exercise

Joby Aviation, Inc.?a next-generation aviation company, today announced that it? demonstrated autonomous logistics aircraft operations in an evolving mission environment, in partnership with the U.S. Air Force during the ‘Agile Flag 24-3’ exercise. During the exercise, Joby’s team, which includes the autonomy division of Xwing acquired by Joby in June of this year, operated a fully autonomous Cessna 208B Grand Caravan for more than 3,900 miles of flight between military bases and public airports across California and Nevada.

The aircraft autonomously transported essential components to restore the operational readiness of various Air Force assets, flying between 9 locations in a dynamic operational environment. The aircraft, while monitored by a safety pilot, completed a fully autonomous taxi, take-off, and landing at each location during the exercise without requiring on-the-ground infrastructure, including numerous sites that had not been previously visited by the aircraft.........Know More
