A robotic system developed under DARPAs Machine Common Sense (MCS) program performed better in experiments after it “learned” the required skills through Artificial Intelligence (AI). Just as infants must learn from experience, MCS seeks to construct computational models that mimic the core domains of child cognition for objects (intuitive physics), agents (intentional actors), and places (spatial navigation)
Eurofighter, NATO EF2000 and Tornado Development, Production and Logistics Management Agency (NETMA), and Eurojet Turbo signed a contract worth $2.14 billion for the acquisition of 20 latest-generation Eurofighter jets at the ILA Berlin International Air Show today
China Aerospace Research Institute of Materials & Processing Technology (ARIMPT) has developed a jet blast deflecor (JBD) coating for Chinas third aircraft carrier Fujian that helps prevent damage to the deck from the intensely host exhaust of jets taking off.China launched its third aircraft carrier, the Fujian with hull number 18, at Jiangnan Shipyard of China State Shipbuilding Corporation (CSSC)
The Chinese Navys Type 055 large destroyer Lhasa is reportedly holding its first far sea drills by entering the Sea of Japan, hinting that it has reached full operational capabilities. “The latest voyage indicates that the Lhasa has reached 100% operational capability, and it can carry out military missions in the far sea as the core of a flotilla,” Wei Dongxu, a Beijing-based military expert, told the

BAE Systems will display combat vehicles, artillery systems, and technologies for precision strike and situational awareness at the coming Eurosatory defense and security tradeshow in Paris June 13-17. The full-size vehicles on display at outdoor stand C371 in area Pe6a are the CV90MkIV infantry fighting vehicle which was recently selected by the Slovakia Ministry of Defence as its preferred system for the procurement of Infantry Fighting Vehicles (IFVs) for the Slovak Army, the ARCHER 155mm mobile howitzer, and the BvS10 all-terrain vehicle, along with advanced guided weapon systems and situational awareness technologies
The Swedish Defence Materiel Administration (FMV) awarded Saab a contract valued SEK 250 million ($25.3 million) relating to future fighter aircraft development
China Manned Space Agency said the countrys next manned spaceflight — the Shenzhou XIV mission — will soon be launched from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center in northwestern China. The agency said in a brief released on Sunday that a Long March 2F carrier rocket, with the Shenzhou XIV spacecraft on top of it, was moved to the launch tower that morning and will undergo prelaunch tests
South Koreas Defense Science Research Institute, part of Agency for Defense Development (ADD), has developed what it calls ‘Warhead Classification and Radar Resource Management Optimization Technology, to detect and track ballistic missiles. ADD performed all R&D processes with pure domestic technology, and secured omnidirectional source technology through the Defense Acquisition Program Administration (DAPA)'s core technology development project from 2018 to 2022, DAPA said in a
South Korean-origin engines have been integrated onto Turkeys Altay main battle tank (MBT), which could mean that its mass production could begin in two years. Turkish land vehicle manufacturer BMC, the company that is undertaking the Altay project, signed an agreement with two South Korean companies, Doosan Infracore Co
