3D Printing Central to Future Military Strategy

Posted by in categories: 3D printing, drones, military

Kyle Maxey- Engineering.com

A recently presented paper outlines how 3D printing, robotic assembly lines and airborne drones will become the cornerstone of future military production.
Co-authored by Ben Fitzgerald and Dr. Aaron Martin, both experts in the field of strategic planning and security, the paper describes how additive manufacturing can shift today’s military procurement paradigm.

Currently, the US military is faced with a huge problem. New systems take decades to develop, face massive cost over-runs and often aren’t adaptable to changing strategic needs.

To solve this problem Fitzgerald proposes that the military adopt additive manufacturing as a way to accelerate the development and procurement process. As the paper’s authors see it, 3D printers offer the military three distinct advantages over traditional manufacturing:

U.S. military look into remote controlled ‘helicopter truck transformers’ that can be sent on rescue missions WITHOUT a driver

Posted by in categories: drones, military

By Daily Mail Reporter -

The U.S. military have commissioned the creation of a vehicle that can drive and fly remotely so it can be sent on missions unmanned

  • New drone is in development to meet the requirements of the U.S. military for a new evacuation vehicle
  • Currently being tested by Advanced Tactics, an El Segundo-based firm
  • Called Black Knight Transformer, it would be capable of both flying and driving and would be operated by a remote

A Guide To Spotting And Hiding From Drones

Posted by in categories: defense, drones, education, military, security, surveillance

Kelsey D. Atherton — Popular Science

Consider it a rough Audubon guide to the mechanical fauna of battlefields. Created by Amsterdam-based designer Ruben Pater, the Drone Survival Guide is, on one side, a rough bird watcher’s guide to the modern robot at war. The other side is a short section of printed survival tips, and the guides are available in Pashto, Dutch, German, Italian, Indonesian, Arabic, and English.

The selection of drones included in the guide leads heavily towards those from NATO member countries, with the United Kingdom, Canada, France, Germany, and the United States all represented, as well as NATO itself, for the other member countries that use these drones. Partly because those are the countries that have used drones, in Afghanistan and elsewhere, the most, but partly because they are just the countries where it is easier to get information about the scale and wingspan of their flying robots.
