These 7 Technologies that will Revolutionize the Battlefield by 2040

In this article, we will present the seven technologies under development, which are at different stages of technological maturation, but which all have the potential to profoundly transform the battlefield by 2040, to the point of creating new forms of war or confrontation hitherto unknown, or even to render obsolete certain technologies which today represent a strategic pivot of the organisation of La Défense: directed energy weapons, quantum computers, hypersonic weapons, intelligence artificial intelligence, rail guns, robotics and the controversial neutrino detectors.

Modernisation in Military Training and Combat: The Advantages of Augmented Reality

Modernisation and innovation in the military are crucial for keeping up with technological advancements. Geopolitical and geo-economic shifts, such as the modernisation of Russia’s armed forces and China’s increasing international assertiveness, have turned defence modernisation into a competitive business. Meanwhile, the battlefield is shifting to cyberspace, so new and innovative solutions will be necessary to handle these contemporary threats. Western armies have no choice but to step up and to keep up with technological developments

5G: What Opportunities for the European Union?

Although the European Union (EU) has been caught between the United States (US)-China military and economic rivalry over the last decade, it is now starting to find its path, exploiting new technological opportunities arising. In detail, in the past few years, the EU has oriented its efforts towards several emerging technologies, including cybersecurity, artificial intelligence (AI) and last but not least, 5G. According to the European Commission, “5G provides virtually universal, ultra-high bandwidth, and low latency ‘connectivity’ not only to individual users but also to connected objects”. From the civilian perspective, the fifth-generation wireless technology can be applied to many different sectors, for instance, to connect automated mobility, eHealth and energy management. By accelerating and making connectivity more flexible, this generation will be at the centre of the future digital economy

The U.S. Army’s latest pntOS software development enhances defence and security 

On November 8, 2021, Breaking Defense reported that the U.S. Army Combat Capabilities Development Command’s C5ISR Centre released a new ‘pntOS’, a software allowing for posi-tioning, navigation, and timing (PNT) sensors that enable multi-domain operations and interop-erability under the complete range of threat conditions found in rapidly changing hostile envi-ronments among land forces.

Another step towards a robust, secure, and resilient defence: NATO releases first-ever strategy for Artificial Intelligence

On 22 October, NATO unveiled its new strategy regarding the future use of Artificial Intelligence (AI). This acknowledges the fact that AI is altering the state of defence and security globally and is likely to lead to more technologically advanced threats to the organisation. As such, NATO plans to keep its technological edge through a joint plan to advance its use of AI in defence and security.
