Our military networks and key supporting critical infrastructures are now at significant risk from cyber-attacks, cyber espionage and cyber warfare campaigns from our adversaries. All the important areas of thecyber including Cyber threats and threat assessment, Cyber situation awareness, cyber defence, Cyber resilience and cyber technologies
With globalization and accelerating change of technologies, the technology and military competition has become very intense among the countries.Therefore, there is constant need to look at the changing defence and security environment as well as growth of International military and technological capabilities so that adequate strategy can be evolved for their development, leverage from friendly countries and counter our adversaries
:All the security threats,including Asymmetric, Urban and Hybrid Warfare, their unique capability and technology requirements and technology breakthroughs that can defeat them.Military and Security forces require new air, ground and sea-based platforms having capabilities of accurately engaging targets in urban terrain with low collateral damag
The monitoring of industry trends of various technologies provides opportunities for integrating the rapidly evolving commercial technologies within military systems and concepts of operations and building defence industrial base.
The innovation trends including programs launched by militaries to inspire creative thinking by strengthening its collaboration with tech firms, entrepreneurs, and start-ups and crowd sourcing
The military section is divided into the traditional areas or domains land, air and sea as well as soldiers since human requirements are different and deserve special treatment.
Air :Many countries are planning "sixth generation" of fighter jet Future Airspace dominance that will be able to operate in the anti-access/area-denial environment that will exist in the 2030–50 time frame. Swarms of ‘mini’ or ‘micro’ UAVs would offer advantages such as low observability operational flexibility; mission sustainability and cost effectiveness.
Land:Our future forces should be combat effective, adaptive, deployable, informed and agile, versatile, precise and lethal, survivable and sustainable. They also should be better networked and capable of operating in a joint engagement environment. Corresponding platforms also need to be versatile, efficient and with very small footprints.
Navy:Navies are facing advanced battlefield threats including fifth generation stealth fighters, directed energy weapons both laser and electromagnetic types, hypersonic weapons and platforms, Rail guns, large number of autonomous air, ground and underwater systems, Super Cavitating Submarines and Torpedoes and Missile torpedoes.US is developing range of technologies to tackle asymmetric threat posed by Russia’s new generations of stealthy conventional and nuclear submarines. Submarines themselves are being upgraded with sonar absorbent composites, advanced propulsion,super cavitation, mind controlled, laser-based communications.
Soldier: The vision for the future soldier is to be combat effective and highly mobile, adaptive, networked, sustainable with total battle space situation awareness and information assurance. Around the world, armies
The space is increasing becoming another domain of conflict due to enhanced militarization along with proliferation of counter space weapons like electronic warfare, anti-satellite weapons, and DEW weapons.The era of hypersonic flight had arrived providing revolutionary military capability like prompt global strike, launch on demand, satellite servicing and anti-satellite missions. All the important areas of Space including space threats,military space capabilitiesand enabling technologies,Space situation awareness(SSA), Space deterrence,and Space defence
Global up-to-date technology scan to determine current technology status and technological innovations andassessing their military potential. Core technology areas Electronics and EW, Photonics, ICT, Energy and propulsion, Materials, Nanotechnology, Quantum and Bioscience
