Countries developing autonomous, Networked Swarms of Munitions or collaborative weapons

Current weapons generally fly a pre-designated mission. If the enemy does something unexpected, preprogrammed weapons are ineffective, and additional weapons may be required to complete the mission. Autonomous, Networked, and  collaborative weapons are advantageous since they observe and react to the enemy in real time, helping weapons overcome adversary defenses …

New Small and Micro UAVs propulsion concepts and technologies to enable security forces to scout out buildings for urban combat and counter terrorist operations.

A miniature UAV or small UAV (SUAV) is an unmanned aerial vehicle small enough to be man-portable. Miniature UAVs range from micro air vehicles (MAVs) that can be carried by an infantryman, to man-portable UAVs that can be carried and launched like an infantry man-portable air-defense system. The term is …
