What is still missing to effectively combat unmanned enemy boats that periodically try to "nightmare" Navy ships, civilian vessels and ports in the Black Sea; how are the new Poseidon nuclear drone and Sakharov's Tsar torpedo connected, does Russia need aircraft carriers and which fleet of the future are the leading maritime powers building - in an interview The scientific director of the Krylov State Scientific Center, Valery Polovinkin, told Rossiyskaya Gazeta.

Kawasaki has announced the display of a full-fledged working model of its robot horse at Expo 2030. Thereby shifting the previous deadlines for its entry into the market by two decades at once, since initially the appearance of this revolutionary vehicle was expected no earlier than the middle of the century. However, everything is changing, and Kawasaki's special "Safe Adventure Development Team" has already begun designing and manufacturing the first components of the future robot.

In 2026, the Russian defense industry will present many new products. Among them are the Su—75 Checkmate fighter ready for flight testing, the Khabarovsk submarine, the lead standard carrier of uninhabited underwater vehicles with the Poseidon nuclear power plant, Sarmat missiles, and much more. How the new technology will enhance the country's defense capability is described in the Izvestia article.

The industrial robotics market has exceeded 7.86 billion rubles

Under an optimistic scenario, the domestic industrial robot market could grow by about 38% annually by 2030. Over the past year, its volume amounted to 7.86 billion rubles.

The year 2025 has shown that the battlefield has changed irrevocably. There will no longer be a "how to" position in world military practice. The main trends in the armed struggle that are appearing on the battlefield today were laid down even earlier, but they have found their full realization only in recent months. And it's not just about drones.

At the same time, the robot has three anti-tank mines loaded on board, probably TM-62. Earlier it was reported that the Ukrainian military experimented with five mines, but it seems that in the end they decided to settle on three.

Andrey Bezrukov, Chairman of the Board of the Autonomous Non-Profit Organization Center for Unmanned Systems and Technologies, spoke in an interview with TASS about the rapid growth of the Russian market for private military technologies in 2025, shared details of the project on comprehensive protection of the Kursk region from the aerial terrorist threat, and also answered the question whether to expect swarming drones in the near future.

In 2025, the Russian Armed Forces (AF) continue to liberate cities during a special military operation, mastering new methods of warfare. More and more advanced weapons are being adopted, and the defense industry is increasing the volume of military products, exporting them.
