<\/a>The Future of War: Israel Takes Global Lead on Military Innovation With New AI Division, Iron Beam Laser System<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/h3>\nDavid Swindle<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) announced this week a revolutionary reorganization of the technology and artificial intelligence\u00a0capabilities of the Jewish state\u2019s military<\/a>, unveiling new plans to prepare for future warfare with cutting-edge advancements.<\/span><\/p>\n Israel\u2019s major defense overhaul, unveiled on Tuesday, comes\u00a0in preparation for the deployment of the long-anticipated \u201cIron Beam\u201d laser interceptor system, which will be delivered to the military at the end of the month.<\/span><\/p>\n Under the name \u201cBina\u201d \u2014 Hebrew word \u201cintelligence\u201d \u2014 the IDF has chosen to shut down its Lotem Unit from the C41 Corps, replacing it with the Artificial Intelligence (AI) Division and the Spectrum Division. The latter will focus on communications and electronic warfare with an\u00a0emphasis on threats from Iran<\/a>, China, and Russia.<\/span><\/p>\n The AI Division will grow through merging other sections within the IDF, including Mamram (the abbreviation for the Center of Computing and Information Systems) and software development units Shahar and Mitzpen. This consolidation of AI-development related divisions intends both to intensify security and avoid accidentally duplicating research efforts. The project will align with Israel\u2019s\u00a0Project Nimbus<\/a>\u00a0cloud computing program supplied by Amazon and Google.<\/span><\/p>\n The IDF also announced the ICT Division, which will focus on satellite warfare in outer space.<\/span><\/p>\n According to the military, about 50 percent of the new divisions are composed of women soldiers, with female officers comprising 40 percent of the senior command including two of the five top leadership positions.<\/span><\/p>\n Brig. Gen. Yael Grossman now heads ICT and the Cyber Defense Division, and Brig Gen. Racheli Dembinsky will head the Spectrum Division. Others in leadership positions include Chief Signals Officer Brig. Gen. Omer Cohen and Maj. Gen. Aviad Dagan.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cI have no doubt that the world is heading towards a space war, especially after the US and China defined space as a possible war arena,\u201d Dr. Moshik Cohen, CEO for defense technology company AIPEX which focuses on missiles, told the Israeli publication\u00a0Globes<\/em>.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cRival powers are already using it on the battlefield,\u201d Cohen continued. \u201cThe Chinese have developed a way to detect stealth aircraft using satellites, and the Russians have jammed GPS signals from US satellites, which have dropped thousands of smart bombs on earth and blocked satellite communications for the Ukrainians. At the same time, the US is promoting Golden Dome, which will consist of a network of low-flying satellites able to perform military missions such as\u00a0intercepting ballistic and hypersonic missiles<\/a>\u00a0and blocking enemy communications.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n Dagan said that the new divisions aspired to use technology to \u201cturn one tank into 100 tanks, one soldier into 100 fighters.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n On Monday, meanwhile, Danny Gold, the head of the Israeli Defense Ministry\u2019s Directorate of Defense Research and Development, revealed that the military would soon receive\u00a0the \u201cIron Beam\u201d laser interception system<\/a>, a project a decade in development.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cWith development complete and a comprehensive testing program that has validated the system\u2019s capabilities, we are prepared to deliver initial operational capability to the IDF on Dec. 30, 2025,\u201d Gold said. \u201cThe Iron Beam laser system is expected to fundamentally change the rules of engagement on the battlefield. Simultaneously, we are already advancing the next-generation systems.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n Created by Rafael Advanced Systems Ltd., the Iron Beam is intended to supplement rather than replace Israel\u2019s Iron Dome and other air defense systems, focusing especially on smaller targets. As long as the weapon maintains a power source then it cannot run out of ammunition. However, the system does not function optimally in situations with clouds or low visibility.<\/span><\/p>\n The IDF chose to rename the laser weapon from Magen Or (Light Shield) to Or Eitan (Eitan\u2019s Light) in honor of Cpt. Eitan Oster, a member of the Egoz Commando Unit killed in October 2024 while fighting the Hezbollah terrorist group in Lebanon.<\/span><\/p>\n Brig. Gen. Benny Aminov also announced this week an Israeli breakthrough in\u00a0countering enemy drone attacks<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cWe are now working on interception solutions using drone-based systems that enable response to swarm scenarios while accelerating the development of new directed-energy weapons,\u201d Aminov said. \u201cThe issue of low-altitude threats is an example of a challenge that requires our defense establishment to fundamentally change its operational approach, responding within compressed time frames, spiral development, accelerating testing during the development process, and bridging small defense-tech companies with major defense contractors.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n Zawarto\u015b\u0107 publikowanych artyku\u0142\u00f3w i materia\u0142\u00f3w nie reprezentuje pogl\u0105d\u00f3w ani opinii Reunion’68,<\/em> The Future of War: Israel Takes Global Lead on Military Innovation With New AI Division, Iron Beam Laser System David Swindle A part of Iron Beam laser anti-missile interception system, developed by Israel, is seen in this handout image obtained by Reuters on Sept. 17, 2025.
