EOS’ updated Slinger is designed to provide counter-drone protection on the move, pairing radar tracking with cannon fire at distances exceeding 800 meters and offering different levels of autonomous operation.

Gravity Industries' Jet Suit straps small jet engines to a pilot's arms and back, producing over 1,000 horsepower, and set a Guinness World Record of 85.06 mph in 2019. Built by British inventor Richard Browning, it has been trialled by paramedics and the Royal Marines, and Gravity now wants to take jet suit racing to the US.

A proposed air-defense version of Spain’s F-110 frigate would expand missile capacity and integrate upgraded sensors, enabling a broader role in protecting naval formations from aerial threats.

Snowtunnel, an Australian company, is building the world’s first full-scale revolving snow tunnel in Braybrook, a suburb of Melbourne. The structure measures 12.5 meters high and 16 meters in diameter, providing around 600 square meters of continuously rideable terrain inside a rotating snow-covered cylinder. Skiers and snowboarders descend as the slope moves toward them, eliminating the need for lifts or tow systems. The main tunnel has been manufactured and delivered to the site, with construction crews now assembling the structure alongside a dedicated snow room using real snow produced by all-weather snow system specialists TechnoAlpin. Rider testing is expected in early 2027, with a planned public opening later that year.

The design requires only 54.5 m² of space for the installation of a 4 MWh project, lowering the land requirements by more than 30% while using conventional battery solutions. bit.ly/48kdJKA

A drop-in replacement for standard electric water heater elements has been developed that contains 20 ASIC Bitcoin mining chips drawing up to 600W. The chips run at 34 trillion hash calculations per second, and the heat they generate warms the water tank rather than being wasted. Water cooling keeps the chips stable, since water conducts heat far more efficiently than air. A companion app monitors tank temperature, hashrate, and earnings, and learns usage patterns to ensure hot water is ready when needed. Heatbit, the company behind the device, estimates earnings of approximately $1.35 per day before electricity costs. The first batch is priced at $899, shipping in Q1 2027, with subsequent units at $1,299, compared to around $180 for a comparable conventional element.

Gravity Industries has demonstrated its Jet Suit at more than 300 events worldwide and tested its potential for mountain rescue with NATO units. bit.ly/4yRjFWl
