We watch from the safety of our couches as loved ones run to embrace their hero.I’ve lived…

Using fake radio signals to spoof the enemy is a common stratagem.The Department of Defense wants to take that idea one step further and wield AI-generated “personalities” to mimic real people — and fool enemy AI trying to identify patterns in friendly cellphone traffic.The goal is to mask “digital exhaust,” the metadata automatically emitted by mobile phones, such as location and specific device IDs. Intelligence agencies, law enforcement, militaries and even criminals have become adept at using this digital debris to locate users and analyze their behavior.In particular, “accessing foreign mobile phone networks exposes individuals and organizations to surveillance and…

The U.S. Air Force is accelerating its timeline for a cheaper, more expendable successor to the MQ-9A Reaper, officials said Sept. 3, after combat losses left the service unwilling to wait out the rest of the drone’s life.Lt.

The rising category of Low Power Variable Optics (LPVOs) continues to enchant and enrage us, the former because there’s so much variation within the theme, the latter because some brands continue to treat their LPVOs as sub-sized versions of higher-magnification rifle scopes.Most optics manufacturers, though, have seen the benefits in sales and brand loyalty of building their LPVOs around purposeful reticles and smart configurations that are sized for AR-15 platforms, shotguns and pistol-caliber carbines. These are the scopes that are winning 3-Gun and multi-gun matches, or they’re taking on bears in North America or dangerous game in Africa, or they’re…
