ABSTRACT

This research explores the shape of warfare to come over the next twenty-five years from a Swedish perspective. It is evident that change in the practice of warfare is apparent in international relations today due to the use of innovative new technologies. These developments raise profound practical and conceptual questions for armed forces as to what do these new systems mean for the prosecution of warfare and the intellectual ideas/knowledge base that underpin the contemporary application of force. This research offers a tentative exploration of three aspects (artificial intelligence, autonomous platforms and the future battlefield: the soldier level) framed in the context of the traditional environments of air, land and sea to interrogate their meaning for Sweden and future warfare.

摘要

这项研究从瑞典的角度探讨了未来 25 年的战争形态。很明显，由于使用了创新的新技术，当今国际关系中的战争实践发生了明显的变化。这些发展为武装部队提出了深刻的实践和概念问题，即这些新系统对战争进行以及支撑当代武力应用的思想/知识基础意味着什么。这项研究在传统的空中、陆地和海洋环境的背景下，对三个方面（人工智能、自主平台和未来战场：士兵级别）进行了初步探索，以询问它们对瑞典和未来战争的意义。
