Chinese engineers have achieved a significant technological breakthrough by creating the world’s first drone capable of being launched from a submarine, flying through the air, and operating underwater — all within a single mission. This amphibious unmanned aerial/underwater vehicle (UAUV) represents a major leap in dual-domain technology with far-reaching implications for naval warfare, intelligence gathering, […]

In Germany’s industrial heartlands, a new playbook for AI investment is being written: If you want to operate at scale, you must master your own power. The traditional “utility” model of the data center—where a […]
China is rapidly advancing a new generation of silent unmanned surface vessels (USVs) that could fundamentally alter the balance in the South China Sea and other strategic waters. These wave-powered drones require no fuel, produce almost no noise, and can patrol for months at a time — equipped with hydrophones, artificial intelligence, and real-time satellite […]
