| Summary / Abstract (Note) | To ensure a free and open Indo-Pacific, the United States Air Force (USAF) must
maintain its ability to freely operate in international airspace and project force
forward to deter aggression. Future improvements to antiaccess/area-denial (A2/
AD) systems will certainly include artificial intelligence (AI). AI is a strategic
priority of our adversaries, as it can provide significant benefits for national defense. The USAF must be prepared to tackle these technical challenges to uphold
our regional commitments and protect international interests in the IndoPacific. Three specific applications relevant to A2/AD are (1) target recognition
from multiple fused data sources, (2) improved war gaming with agent-based
models, and (3) blockchain-enabled autonomous systems. This article will introduce how these technologies might be integrated into future A2/AD systems and
recommend some strategies for addressing and overcoming these challenges. |
