A few of Stride's ‘gadgets'
HOW does the Science and Technology Research Institute for Defence (Stride) envision the modernisation of Malaysia's military capabilities – such as through robotics, aerospace, or advanced materials – translating into tangible operational advantages for the country's armed forces in the coming decade? Stride director-general Nor Azlan Mohd Ramli outlines several key initiatives that cover operations in the air, on the ground and at sea as part of the Malaysia's 'Future Force' concept. He says among the key initiatives are Unmanned Ground Vehicles (UGV), co-developed with local industry, which supports missions ranging from surveillance and logistics to potential combat operations. 'Future enhancements will incorporate swarm capabilities and advanced sensor suites.' And apart from the use of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) as border monitoring and in tactical combat missions, in the maritime domain, Stride is developing unmanned maritime systems to conduct mine detection, coastal patrols and anti-piracy operations, expanding Malaysia's autonomous maritime capabilities. At the same time, Nor Azlan says, to complement those efforts, innovations in materials science are also underway. 'The development of lightweight composite materials for military application aims to increase durability, extend platform lifespans, and reduce maintenance costs. For instance, in the field of fabric technology, Stride has developed TropiKamo®, a near-infrared (NIR) camouflage fabric meticulously designed for optimal performance in tropical climates. Engineered to provide effective concealment across both the visible and infrared spectrums, this advanced material significantly enhances stealth capabilities in Malaysia's jungle and semi-urban operational environments, says Nor Azlan. Meanwhile, also in place is Stride's Centre of Excellence for Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) Technology, which will serve as a national testing hub to certify systems to international standards, improve resilience to electromagnetic interference (EMI), and support the safe integration of electronic and weapon systems. 'By reducing reliance on foreign testing centres, the EMC facility will also help elevate locally developed defence technologies to export-ready standards, thereby reinforcing industrial empowerment and technological independence.' Nor Azlan says between 2025 and 2035, Stride's initiatives are set to deliver measurable impact for the Malaysian Armed Forces (MAF), including improved operational efficiency, cost savings and enhanced deterrence. 'Upgraded C4ISR (Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Recon-naissance) systems will enable seamless coordination across all operational domains.' He stresses that the MAF are expected to possess fully integrated, rapid-response capabilities, enabling effective action against simultaneous threats across multiple operational domains. 'Unmanned systems are anticipated to assume a significant share of intelligence, surveillance, reconnaissance (ISR), and logistics roles, potentially reducing personnel casualties in high-risk environments. Overall, Nor Azlan says indigenous UAVs and UGVs, coupled with strengthened cyber defence capabilities, will reinforce Malaysia's deterrence posture, supporting missions against piracy, smuggling and territorial incursions. 'Locally developed and tested advanced materials will ensure system reliability in Malaysia's tropical operating environments. 'These advancements will also increase Malaysia's participation in regional initiatives such as Asean and Five Power Defence Arrangement (FPDA) exercises, enhancing defence diplomacy and regional stability.'

Breast surgeon, Professor Eisuke Fukuma, a highly regarded cryoablation expert & ProSense® user at Kameda Medical Center, presented updated breast cancer cryoablation data from an independent study of over 600 women from 2006 to 2023 Independent ProSense® study by Professor Hisanori Kawamoto demonstrating 0% breast cancer local recurrence wins Best of Breast Cancer Award Leading US Breast Surgeon, Dr. Richard Fine, presented data from IceCure's ICE3 study & discussed other recent publications on breast cancer cryoablation CAESAREA, Israel, July 25, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — IceCure Medical Ltd. (Nasdaq: ICCM) ('IceCure', 'IceCure Medical' or the 'Company'), developer of minimally-invasive cryoablation technology that destroys tumors by freezing as an alternative to surgical tumor removal, today announced its participation in the 33rd Annual Meeting of the Japanese Breast Cancer Society's Conference (the 'Conference') which took place earlier this month in Tokyo. 'We believe ProSense® can make a significant impact on improving breast cancer outcomes in Japan by providing women with a minimally invasive option. This year's Conference was highly productive as we engaged with breast surgeons, thought leaders, and industry participants,' stated Eyal Shamir, IceCure's Chief Executive Officer. 'Working with Terumo Corporation in Japan, the country's largest medical device company, we anticipate strong commercial adoption upon regulatory approval for breast cancer, especially given the strong data coming from independent Japanese studies.' IceCure, a sponsor of the Conference, hosted a cryoablation-focused luncheon on Friday, July 11, 2025, led by Professor Takayuki Kinoshita, Division of Breast Surgery, NHO Tokyo Medical Center, with presentations made by: Professor Eisuke Fukuma, who has performed over 600 breast cryoablation procedures, the majority of which were conducted with ProSense®, presented the latest data from his ongoing activity to treat breast cancer at Kameda Medical Center. Professor Fukuma's presentation included the following: From June 2006 through December 2023, 535 breast cancer patients with tumor lesions of less than 15 millimeters and 76 patients with tumor lesions of less than 10 millimeters were treated. The overall ipsilateral breast tumor recurrence rate (IBTR') was 0.98% for up to 17 years, resulting in a 99.02% recurrence free rate. For a subpopulation with more than 10 years follow up, including 51 patients with invasive ductal carcinoma and 20 patients with ductal carcinoma in situ, the IBTR was 2.8%, resulting in a 97.2% recurrence free rate.

The overall ipsilateral breast tumor recurrence rate (IBTR') was 0.98% for up to 17 years, resulting in a 99.02% recurrence free rate. For a subpopulation with more than 10 years follow up, including 51 patients with invasive ductal carcinoma and 20 patients with ductal carcinoma in situ, the IBTR was 2.8%, resulting in a 97.2% recurrence free rate. Dr. Richard Fine of West Cancer Center & Research Institute in the U.S., and a clinical investigator of IceCure's successfully completed ICE3 breast cancer clinical study, presented findings from the ICE3 study as well as data from independent studies of ProSense® in breast cancer. The Conference gave the Best of Breast Cancer award to an independent study published in the journal Breast Cancer titled 'Percutaneous ultrasound–guided cryoablation for early–stage primary breast cancer: a follow–up study in Japan'. This study was led by Professor Hisanori Kawamoto, M.D., Ph.D. from the Department of Breast Surgery, Breast and Imaging Center at St. Marianna University School of Medicine in Japan and reported zero (0%) breast cancer local recurrence 5 years following treatment with ProSense®. Dr. Kawamoto commented, 'This is a very important study in Japan, where we are experiencing an upward trend in breast cancer cases, especially among women in their late 40s to their early 60s. These are women who often are at very active stages of their life and therefore there is a growing demand for treatment options that minimize the chance of, or even avoid, hospitalization, in addition to resulting in favorable clinical and cosmetic outcomes. We are very pleased with these results and are hopeful that ProSense® may become a favored option in Japan upon regulatory approval for early-stage breast cancer.' Terumo Corporation is expected to submit an application to the Pharmaceuticals and Medical Devices Agency ('PMDA') of Japan for regulatory clearance for breast cancer indication for the ProSense® system by the end of 2025.
