🫣🇮🇳 India’s Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) has developed an algorithm-based camouflage technology that reportedly makes military assets appear as decoys. The tech utilizes special paint and stickers to effectively conceal otherwise easily recognizable equipment, such as artillery, tanks, and missile systems. It allows these assets to blend into their surroundings, making it difficult for enemy satellites, drones, and reconnaissance aircraft to identify them as real targets. #military #army #defense #defence #defenseindustry #defenceindustry #defensetech #defencetech #militarytech #technology #innovation #india #drdo

This solution appears to have a higher profile than might be desirable for tactical CASEVAC but a shift towards autonomous, AI controlled, Land/Air CASEVAC / MEDEVAC for the Land domain seems more and more to be only a matter of time. The question then becomes: “Where to site the clinicians…???” 🤔

The U.S. Army has effectively deployed cutting-edge high-energy lasers in an undisclosed foreign location to neutralize hostile drones in the airspace. This strategic use of the 20-kilowatt Palletized High Energy Laser (P-HEL) marks a significant milestone in the military's advancement of directed-energy weaponry. The Rapid Capabilities and Critical Technologies Office, the entity overseeing this state-of-the-art technology, has officially verified the deployment of the P-HEL to bolster the Army's operational objectives. This successful mission showcases the progressive integration of futuristic armaments into military strategies. #DefenseInnovation #ModernWarfareTech https://buff.ly/49UB6c5

🤩 The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) has contracted Lockheed Martin to develop AI tools for autonomous, airborne missions. Surrogate models of aircraft, sensors, electronic warfare, and weapons will be built under the $4.6-million contract as part of the Artificial Intelligence Reinforcements (AIR) program. “In complex airborne missions, our customers need access to advanced technologies that connect critical systems quickly across all domains,” VP of Engineering and Technology for Lockheed Martin Missiles and Fire Control Gaylia Campbell said. “The DARPA AIR program will use state-of-the-art scientific ML technology and Lockheed Martin’s ARISE infrastructure to deliver unprecedented amounts of data that service members can use to make faster and more informed decisions.” #military #army #defense #defence #defenseindustry #defenceindustry #defensetech #defencetech #militarytech #technology #innovation #lockheedmartin #us #unitedstates #darpa #artificialintelligence #ai

🥊 The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) has successfully demonstrated an aerial “dogfight” between an AI-piloted and a human-controlled F-16. Part of the agency’s Air Combat Evolution program, the initiative aimed to showcase “transformational progress” in human-machine teaming and increase trust in autonomous platforms. US Air Force Test Pilot School Commandant Col. James Valpiani said the AI “performed well” in general, indicating that the program “is moving in the right direction.” United States Air Force Test Pilot School #military #technology #militarytech #defensetech #innovation #defense #defence #defenseindustry #defenceindustry #usairforce #f16 #ai #arfticialintelligence #darpa #machinelearning #aerospace #aviation #militaryaviation
