| Summary/Abstract |
Armed forces need to understand the evolution of warfare in the 21st century to keep themselves in readiness. Mentally military and political leaders should be ready to understand and absorb the dynamics of warfare. In this respect, future operations are likely to be carried out in battlefields exposed to the influence of directed energy. Autonomous and automated weapons will become the key elements of military operations. Modern weapons will become increasingly network centric, asymmetric hybrid systems.
