South African Paramount Group has equipped its multi-mission Mwari aircraft with anti-drone technologies, enabling it to hunt and kill Medium Altitude and Long Endurance (MALE) Drones which otherwise require expensive ground-based air defense missiles.

The anti-drone Mwari is capable of engaging MALE drones at altitudes of 20,000-30,000 feet, where only highly sophisticated and costly ground-based air defence systems (GBADS) can reach, and which would otherwise require the intervention of fighter jets.

One of the world's most ambitious science projects is making good progress in South Africa. The Square Kilometre Array -- or SKA telescope will cover a distance of at least 3-thousand kilometres from its central core. This makes it at least 50 times more sensitive than any other radio telescope. South Africa and Australia are hosting the bulk of the project, but China has committed funding and scientific personnel. CCTV's Travers Andrews has this report.

In 'What Do Science, Technology, and Innovation Mean from Africa?", scholars from a range of disciplines show that STI in Africa is not merely the product of “technology transfer” from elsewhere but the working of African knowledge. Their contributions focus on African ways of looking, meaning-making, and creating. “Things do not (always) mean the same from everywhere,” observes Clapperton Chakanetsa Mavhunga, the volume’s editor.

Betelhem works with young people to find technological solutions to community-based problems and teaches young Africans the basics of artificial intelligence, robotics, blockchain and other emerging technologies.
