Israel sets up new department to boost development of AI and autonomy
Israel will continue to develop autonomy for its weapons and platforms as it brings together defence personnel, academia and industry.
Chemring Technology Solutions (CTS) has launched a new lightweight version of its Resolve electronic warfare (EW) manpack system, designed to meet demand for more versatile EW solutions for on-the-march missions.
The new system weighs 10kg and fits into a standard daysack, and retains the EW capabilities of the larger, standard Resolve manpack system. It delivers immediate threat warning, electronic overwatch and single sensor location for up to eight hours from a single battery.
The lightweight system’s simple interface provides instant access to key functions to deliver immediate support in a variety of operational environments, including close-quarter, long-range patrol or stand-off missions. The lightweight system can still be networked to other static or mobile systems.
Gavin O’Connell, business sector manager, CTS said: ‘Our original development of Resolve was a real step change, as no other EW system provides such a high level of direction-finding capability for dismounted missions. The Resolve lightweight manpack system builds on this by meeting our customers’ increasing demand for smaller, portable solutions that reduce soldier burden and provide more effective support for on-the-march EW operations.’

Clavister CyberArmour, an integrated defence cybersecurity system, will be used on BAE Systems Hägglunds’ CV90 platform in deployments with a Scandinavian country, as well as in an eastern European nation.
The tactical satellite (TacSat) is an intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) system and will participate in exercises in 2025.
The airborne three-domain, the two ground-based and the ¼ ATR OpenVPX-based cross-domain systems were engineered to provide real-time security across multi-domain operations.
DARPA’s Mission-Integrated Network Control (MINC) programme was set up to develop an autonomous tactical network and enable critical data flow in contested environments.
