BALLISTIC HELMETS Transform standard ballistic protection devices into smart devices by applying non-invasive AI. Current baseline brain scans coupled with a post-exposure attempt to track overall exposure and potential resulting TBI (traumatic Brain Injury).  Helmets are periodically tested for serviceability; this costs time and money and may or may not be required. The sensors can determine specific thresholds to trigger more detailed inspections. www.armour.gr #defense #defence #military #police #security #guns #weapons

In modern warfare, the key responsibilities of armed forces include maintaining national security, ensuring territorial integrity, and defending the nation from external threats. Armed forces play a crucial role in adapting to new #technologies and #strategies, such as advanced weapons , #armoured vehicles and unmanned systems to counter evolving #threats. What according to you in the role of #AI in future #warfare 🇮🇳? #armedforces #defence #military #weapons #training #precisetoday #artificialintelligence Video credit - Ai intelligence news

The federal government will spend an extra $5.7 billion on defence over the next four years, and a projected $50.3 billion more in the decade to come as it continues reshaping Australia's armed forces. The government predicts it will spend a total $330 billion on defence in the next decade, growing Australia's navy, preparing the army for shoreline warfare, enhancing long-range strike capabilities and strengthening the nation's northern bases. A national firearms register will be established, more than three decades since the Port Arthur massacre when it was first proposed. The register will provide law enforcement with near-real time information on firearms and their owners, and link that information with other relevant police and government information. Establishing the register will cost $161.3 million over four years. The government will provide an additional $100 million in assistance to Ukraine, including $50 million for "short-range air defence systems". $30 million will go towards aerial drone systems and $15 million towards equipment such as combat helmets, inflatable boats, boots, fire masks and generators. It tips to the total support to Ukraine since Russia's invasion over the $1 billion mark.

Protecting borders is becoming an ever-increasing requirement, risk and challenge. Revector's suite of IMSI Cellphone Location products can support and complement border control initiatives allowing broader coverage and extended range with multi-channel low-SWaP UAV payloads and ground units. https://lnkd.in/e9-iDGvC #BorderControl #Security #Defence #Military #Defense #BorderSecurity

Assuming this is an update to LINAPS, please explain how it makes it more accurate, accuracy and consistency are in the main determined by the vagaries of the probable error over range, assuming all other non-standard conditions have been corrected, and updated LINAPS will do nothing here. The 30 secs is quite a claim, I assume it implies towing in the A Frame and no platform, hardly the normal means of transport or deployment. The light gun has served us well but innacurate claims and sound bites are not the answer. Need to rapidly get on with a 127mm replacement.

Curious about the standard that defines how armoured vehicles should be protected against ballistic threats, mines and improvised explosive devices (IEDs)? In our new blog post, we take an in-depth look at NATO's standardisation agreement STANAG 4569, detailing the different levels of protection, the rigorous testing methods and the importance of the agreement to the safety and effectiveness of modern military vehicles. Originally developed as a unified standard for the protection of military land vehicles, the levels of protection and test methods described in STANAG 4569 are now applied to platform protection for air, land and sea vehicles.

** Major order for 35mm AHEAD ammunition ** A European customer country has commissioned Rheinmetall to supply 35mm AHEAD ammunition for the Skynex air defence system. The total value of the order is in the low three-digit million euro range. A six-digit number of cartridges will be manufactured. The Skynex system strengthens the protection of the customer country's armed forces against threats from the air. This new order once again underlines Rheinmetall's leading technological position in the development and production of highly efficient ammunition for air defence in Europe. Skynex is based on cannon-based air defence and is therefore particularly suitable for close-range protection where guided weapons cannot be effective. Furthermore, the use of programmable 35mm AHEAD ammunition, as developed by Rheinmetall for this purpose, is considerably cheaper than comparable guided missile-based systems. In addition, it is not possible to influence or even deflect the 35mm ammunition by electronic countermeasures after firing. ➡ https://lnkd.in/ek4F56uA #Rheinmetall

Another Defence Counter CBRN Advisor completed. I couldn't ask for a better group of students with a lot of cross knowledge from all areas within defence. Officers, WOs' and SNCOs' develop their newly learnt advisory skills and understanding the challenge of communicating whilst wearing their GSR during the phase of working with the warning and reporting Cell course to form a CBRN Cell. More shaping, development and improvement of the course is required as we (Defence) go through a change of warfare. #coldwar #cbrn

Israel Ministry of Defense Acquires over $220 Million Worth of "Iron Sting" Precision-Guided Mortar Munitions from Elbit Systems. Director General of the Israel Ministry of Defense, Major General (Res.) Eyal Zamir, has signed an order worth over $220 million for thousands of "Iron Sting" precision-guided mortar munitions from Elbit Systems. These advanced precision-guided munitions (PGMs) are set to enhance the operational capabilities of the IDF's ground forces. "Iron Sting" PGMs are equipped with sophisticated laser and GPS guidance systems, enabling precise targeting while minimizing collateral damage and reducing the risk to non-combatants. These advanced munitions represent a significant leap in the IDF's ability to conduct operations in complex combat conditions and urban environments. In response to the outbreak of war, the IMoD Directorate of Defense Procurement (DOPP) has accelerated the acquisition of cutting-edge armaments. This initiative aims to ensure that IDF forces are equipped with the most advanced and effective ammunition, enhancing their operational efficiency and safety. Video Credit: Elbit Systems

Sand bags for protection of Air Defence systems, why not! To be able to counter the drone threats, anything that works is the best defence. There are not many solutions for the mobile troops, sand bags will surely protect the equipment in transit, atleast from the smaller ones. Interestingly, the fact that air defences themselves need to be protected, has highlighted the epoch change in the conflict zone scenarios.
