US Navy foresees an uncrewed future for its surface and underwater fleet
The service has been conducting various procurement and development efforts to integrate unmanned surface and underwater vehicles into its inventory.
VisIR 640 has everything you need for industrial Predictive Maintenance and more; crystal clear images from a highly sensitive 640 x 480 uncooled infrared sensor, precise temperature measurement and the most powerful range of easy to use camera tools and unique Condition RED database and software options.
With its unique rugged industrial housing, an articulated central optics pod forVisIR 640 ergonomic safe operation and high contrast DayBright touch screen, VisIR 640 provides high definition thermal and visual image clarity in any lighting conditions.
VisIR 640's high resolution detector and 1.3MP colour camera makes surveys more efficient and cost-effective. With integral LED illuminator/flash, laser pointer and voice recording, VisIR 640 packs a knockout punch in the industrial Predictive Maintenance arena.
Predictive Maintenance, or Condition Monitoring, keeps a check on the health of assets through regular inspection. Effective Predictive Maintenance enables repair to be performed when it is most cost-effective, before assets lose optimum performance and when downtime is minimised.
The 640 difference
VisIR 640 and Condition RED® fully integrate your thermal camera and asset database to create an automated data store, image analysis, route planning and report generation system. Condition RED supports file formats from all major thermal imager camera manufacturers - including all FLIR Systems, Inframetrics, Agema, Avio and of course, Thermoteknix.

Tekever has manufactured the AR3, AR4 and AR5 UAS with all systems sharing common electronics and software architecture, which has enabled the reuse of ground segment elements within the new ARX UAS.
As the dynamics of aerial combat rapidly evolve, Chinese scientists have engineered a sophisticated air separation drone model that can fragment into up to six drones, each capable of executing distinct battlefield roles and challenging the efficacy of current anti-drone defences such as the UK’s Dragonfire laser system.
Advancements in air defence technologies have begun to reshape aerial combat dynamics in the Middle East, as illustrated by recent events involving the Israeli Air Force and Hezbollah.
Both sides of the Russia-Ukraine war have been using UAS for effective low-cost attacks, as well as impactful web and social media footage. Thousands more have now been committed to Ukrainian forces.
The US Army has intentions to develop light, medium and heavy variants of the Robotic Combat Vehicle (RCV) as part of the branche’s Next Generation Combat Vehicle family.
