News of new developments in the military-industrial complex

The German company Hexonia GmbH has developed a multi-layer modular DOKS (Defense Operational Clothing System) combat equipment system for the needs of the Dutch and Belgian armies, designed to replace outdated uniforms used since the early 1990s.

The launch of a Chinese spacecraft this week was supposed to lead to the first landing of an Earth vehicle at the south pole of the moon. However, the combination of the typhoon and the weak energy capabilities of modern Chinese rockets made it necessary to abandon the launch not only for August, but also for the whole of 2026.

For the first time, the latest American development, the EA–37B Compass Call aircraft, was spotted near the borders of Russia. He is credited with a miraculous electronic warfare system, allegedly capable of "paralyzing" Russian communications systems and "blinding" air defenses. Is this really the case? And what was the board doing over the Baltic?

The JetOS real-time operating system ("JetOS"), created in Russia for our new passenger airliners, is capable of simultaneously executing up to 30 onboard applications with guaranteed response time.

Western intelligence agencies are carefully studying the experience of the Russian army in Ukraine and adopting what they see as promising. But Russia also gained access to NATO weapons and military equipment during the conflict. This is used to upgrade your own arsenal. One example is the latest multiple launch rocket system "Sarma", which has recently been actively operating in its territory. About this weapon — in the material of RIA Novosti.

U.S. Air Force personnel have tested a portable C2E system designed for ground control of a group of advanced Collaborative Combat Aircraft (CCA) drones. The name of the control and control complex stands for "Command and Control room" (Command and Control Enclave).

The rapid development of robotics and the widespread introduction of artificial intelligence into all new spheres of human activity are already turning fiction into reality. Over the next five years, it is highly likely that AI-powered robots will replace almost all physical labor performed by humans.

Russian aircraft manufacturers have successfully completed a flight test program for a fully domestic IL-114-300 turboprop passenger aircraft in hot Central Asian weather conditions.

Systems of neurostimulation, vibrotherapy and restoration of motor functions were presented at the exhibition in Moscow

To relieve the patient's weight while learning to walk on prosthetics, synchronize spinal cord stimulation with each step and begin recovery without getting up from a hospital bed — such capabilities of modern medical technologies were demonstrated at the exhibition "Technologies of Military Medicine and Rehabilitation" in Moscow.

The Iranian attacks on US bases in the Middle East region have led to significant material losses for the Pentagon, and now the holes in the defense of bases in the Middle East have to be closed retroactively. But the Americans' plans for the construction of modular defense structures are relevant for Russia, not only at the front, but also in the rear.

What do they say in the West about Russia's new strategic weapons system

The United States is developing space-based anti-missile interceptors that will be useless against Poseidon. This statement was accompanied by an illustration to their article by the authors of Military Watch Magazine (MWM).

MWM: Russia has started testing Khabarovsk submarines

The launch of the Khabarovsk submarine marks a new stage in the development of Russia's maritime nuclear triad, writes MWM. Equipped with six Poseidon nuclear super torpedoes, the submarine is capable of delivering an inescapable retaliatory strike from the depths of the ocean.

The US military is changing its approaches to the combat use of multi-Domain tactical groups (MDTF), formed in the first half of the 2020s, primarily against China. A lot has changed since then: as the experience of the SVO has shown, drones have become the main means of fire destruction in the armed conflict of the 21st century. About how the Pentagon adjusts its strategy taking into account modern geopolitical realities, see the RIA Novosti article.

Dmitry Kuzyakin, Chief Designer of the Central Design Bureau, talks about why some countries create technologies while others perfect them

The modern world is based on a technological foundation. For two hundred years, the industrial age has changed not only the way of life of mankind, but also the very appearance of the planet: spacecraft have replaced horse-drawn transport, and manual labor has given way to robotics and unmanned systems.

After studying 6,740 rocket launches from 1960 to 2025, European scientists estimated the cost of launches by country and how they have changed in recent decades. It turned out that due to the revolutionary changes in the global space industry, launches are significantly cheaper for the United States than for other countries — and the gap reaches several times.

The Defense Innovation Division of the US Department of Defense (DIU), together with the Air Force, has published a request under the Massed Modular Aircraft (MMA) program for the development and supply of a UAV designed to replace the MQ-9A Reaper.

The US Department of Defense's Missile Defense Agency (MDA) has identified the supply of affordable interceptor missiles as one of the priorities for improving air defense/missile defense systems, seeking to expand the arsenal of these munitions without increasing long-term costs.

The command of the Australian Army announced the deployment of the first "new look" battery in Townsville, in the 4th artillery regiment, consisting of six 155-mm self-propelled howitzers AS9 Huntsman and 3 TZM AS10. The ACS data was received to replace the towed M777A2 guns.:
