Swedish Totalförsvaret Strategy and the Case for a New AFV

In December 2020, the Riksdag (Swedish Parliament) announced its latest defence plan: Totalförsvaret 2021-2025 (Total Defence 2021-2025). This plan is based on the possibility of an imminent attack or a regional conflict that could affect Swedish national security. The plan makes important justifications for the rethinking of national defence in a country with a longstanding tradition of military neutrality.

Countering Drones: How European Land Forces Are Organising Their Anti-UAV Capabilities For Homeland Security

The diffusion of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and drones have registered an exponential increase in recent years. Beyond military UAVs, it is cheap and easy to buy small commercial drones that are easily controlled with a smartphone or remote control. One consequence stemming from this comes in the form of the challenge they pose to security, and the measures which must now be taken to protect sensitive locations and events.

The Use Of Military Drones: The Impact On Land Forces And Legal Implications

Military drones have come to revolutionise warfare. They are roving on land, streaking through the skies, and diving under the seas. Since their creation, more than fifty years ago, drones have constantly evolved to the present, becoming one of the main artificial intelligence (AI) weapons, integrated into military forces throughout the world. Whilst drones exist in all domains; aerial drones (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles - UAVs) are clearly the media superstars. However, a whole ecosystem of ground-based drones or Unmanned Ground Vehicles (UGVs) is evolving at an equally fervid pace. This study will focus on UGVs (within the concept of “drone” hereafter), their implementation in land forces in tandem with UAVs and will discuss the legal issues they present within the European Union (EU) legal framework.
