Uncovering Hidden Networks: Military Technology in the Zawa Mountains

The video discusses the discovery of cave networks by US troops, initially used for storing weapons and as bunkers. It highlights the adaptation of oil industry technology, which uses sound waves to map underground structures, for military purposes. This technology, originally developed for oil and gas exploration, has evolved into detailed 3D mapping. The system is also used for locating tunnels used for smuggling. Future developments include a soldier-friendly kit by Silicon Graphics.
