Title The Modern Face of Battle

Advisor
Baller, William A., HU

Availability restricted

Abstract
New technology is entering the battlefield at a
rapid pace, changing the way modern battle is
conducted. This paper surveys the state of
robotic systems, and identifies new technologies
of war and the evolving military doctrine of the
U.S. military. Our analysis is drawn from
historical parallels and current publications. We
conclude that the Department of Defense has
adopted a high tempo, flexible doctrine that is
capable of taking advantage of the evolving
mission payloads of unmanned military systems.
