Description
The Arms of the Future: Technology and Close Combat in the Twenty-First Century The way armies fight is undergoing a significant transformation, driven by the rapid development of new technologies. From sensor-fuzed munitions to artificial intelligence, modern warfare is becoming increasingly complex. This book examines how novel weapons systems are shaping the risks and opportunities on the battlefield. Drawing on extensive practical observation and experimentation, the author explores the operational challenges posed by new weapons and how armies might be structured to overcome them. As defence spending rises and conflicts with Russia raise new questions about modern warfare, The Arms of the Future provides a timely analysis of the role of technology in future wars.
