Boeing MQ-28 Ghost Bat is an unmanned Collaborative Combat Aircraft (CCA – Collaborative Combat Aircraft) platform developed by Boeing Australia for the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF). Its design enables it to operate alongside manned fighter aircraft using autonomous systems and intelligent human-machine integration to conduct multi-mission operations. Concept and Development History The Ghost Bat supports reconnaissance surveillance sensor data provision electronic warfare and armed strike

S-400 Triumph (NATO reporting name: SA-21 Growler), a multi-role, long-range air defense missile system designed and developed by the Russian-based Almaz Central Design Bureau. Its conceptual foundations were first laid during the 1980s in the Soviet Union, with the primary objective of replacing the then-existing S-200 (Angara/Vega/Dubna) series and S-300P air defense systems with a far more modern architecture.【1】 This project, intended to form the highest tier of Russia’s layered air and ball

Ukraine and nine European countries have announced the establishment of the European Ballistic Missile Defense Coalition on 13 July 2026 to strengthen their collective defense capability against ballistic missile threats. In a joint statement issued by France, Germany, the United Kingdom, Italy, Spain, the Netherlands, Denmark, Norway, Sweden and Ukraine, it was emphasized that the initiative is entirely defensive in nature and aims to develop an integrated missile defense architecture to addres

ASELSAN - Presidency of Defense Industries (SSB) Air Defense Systems Supply Contract is an agreement signed between ASELSAN and the Presidency of Defense Industries (SSB) covering the supply of systems for Türkiye’s air defense. According to ASELSAN’s announcement, the contract, with a total value of 780 million euros, was signed on 16 June 2026. The announcement regarding the contract was made on the Public Disclosure Platform (KAP). Scope of the Contract In the announcement made to KAP by ASEL

Duga-1 was part of a long-range radar network project designed to detect intercontinental ballistic missiles launched by the Soviet Union by identifying the ionospheric trails left by exhaust plumes immediately after launch. Over-the-horizon radar technology relies on the principle of reflecting radio waves off the ionosphere to extend range far beyond the line-of-sight limitations of conventional radar. By following a double-hop path—ground-ionosphere-target-ionosphere-ground—the system could d

CH-7 is a long-range, low-observable unmanned combat aerial vehicle of Chinese origin, known as Cai Hong-7 (Rainbow 7). Developed by the China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation (CASC), it is designed for high-altitude and multi-mission operations, employing a flying-wing architecture that integrates reconnaissance, surveillance and precision strike capabilities. Technical Development Process The development process dates back to its first public unveiling at Airshow China in 2018. Mod

The United States’ New Pursuit Against Unmanned Threats In 2023, the Pentagon launched the “Replicator” initiative with the goal of rapidly integrating thousands of low-cost autonomous systems—such as drones and similar platforms—into its inventory within just 18 to 24 months by leveraging artificial intelligence robotics and commercial technologies. This move arose from the need to counter China’s numerical superiority in ships missiles and personnel by deploying large numbers of small intellig

Merlin-VR (Мерлин-ВР) is an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) developed in Türkiye for military reconnaissance and aerial surveillance purposes. The primary role of Merlin-VR is to serve as a reconnaissance platform equipped with optical and infrared band sensing and location systems, enabling prolonged observation and target identification over a specific area. Public promotional materials highlight the UAV’s high-altitude operations and extended endurance as evidence of its status as a “harder-to-

Saronic Corsair is a diesel-powered, unmanned surface vessel (USV) developed by the United States-based company Saronic Technologies. The vessel is approximately 24 feet (7.3 meters) in length. It has a range of over 1,000 nautical miles, a maximum speed in excess of 35 knots, and a payload capacity of 1,000 pounds (approximately 453 kilograms).【1】The Corsair was designed by Saronic under the U.S. Department of Defense’s Replicator program with the objective of deploying thousands of expendable
