N2 - Recent advances of triboelectric nanogenerators are systematically reviewed across multiscale military platforms, including individual soldier systems, unmanned combat platforms, strategic equipment, and special tactical scenarios. Core advantages of triboelectric nanogenerators in structural-functional integration, extreme environment robustness, and synergy of self-powered energy supply and sensing for military demands are highlighted. Critical engineering bottlenecks are analyzed, and forward-looking directions (e.g., physical layer encryption, self-powered Internet of Military Things) are proposed to accelerate practical deployment.
