Between Earth and space: stratosphere-compatible, solar-powered high-altitude aircraft, known as HAPs (High Altitude Platforms), offer a sustainable alternative to satellites for Earth observation and communication. They are reusable, cost-effective and flexible in use. The DLR joint project HAP-alpha is developing such a technology demonstrator and is endeavoring to establish a complete system capable of permanent operation. The aim is for DLR to build up comprehensive expertise for the development of high-performance, high-flying solar aircraft and to play an active role in shaping the legal framework. In summer 2025, the HAP-alpha successfully passed a ground vibration test.

Since 1993, AMR has become the leading and most recognised journal on defence analysis, affairs and news in the Asia-Pacific region. It is unbiased, objective and authoritative. The editorial content includes capability analysis, special reports and relevant news coverage from the region. It has become the top resource for those working in the Asian military and defence organisations.

JWB Connector/VG95234 has the same structure as the threaded coupling JW5015A connector/MIL-DTL-5015, and is developed with the bayonnet method, which guarantees the stability of the coupling while being simple to combine and separate. It is used for military vehicles and ships such as tanks and armored vehicles because of its excellent moisture barrier and is resistant to vibration and shock. Based on these characteristics, it is widely supplied and applied to general industries.

Weibel’s Doppler velocity radars are designed for precise velocity measurements of free-flying objects such as projectiles, artillery rounds, and rockets. The radars are capable of operating under confined indoor as well as long range environments and providing velocity and other ballistic data. The network-ready SL family of fixed head Doppler radar systems is easily portable and based on state of the art radar technologies. All electronic components are integrated in the antenna/processor unit. The radars connect directly to your TCP/IP network and can be accessed and controlled from any standard PC on the network, running WinDopp software.

A compact demonstrator aircraft derived from the B-33X platform, developed as a scaled model to showcase the core design and technology of SAMBOMOTORS’ next-generation large AAM. It retains the key aerodynamic and structural characteristics of the original model while optimized for testing, demonstration, and exhibition purposes.

Supported by a rugged internal combustion engine compatible with heavy fuels, Reliant delivers over 10 hours of persistent ISR without runways, launchers, or recovery gear. Designed for high-wind, high-altitude, and denied environments, Reliant excels where legacy platforms fall short. Dual swappable payload bays support ISR, SIGINT, or EW missions, while onboard edge AI processing enabled by NVIDIA Jetson Orin NX modules delivers real-time threat detection and adaptive rerouting, even without connectivity. The platform can be deployed by a two-person team in under 10 minutes using a compact 10×10-meter footprint for launch and recovery from rooftops, vehicles, ships, or remote terrain. With an IP55-rated, all-weather design and reliable GNSS-denied navigation, Reliant gives operators the flexibility and resilience required to operate in complex, contested battlespaces.
