Special the path of heroes for Military World.
Knowing the situation of the enemy in an armed conflict, and not also armed, as well as in periods of peace is a need of always.It is the first or of the first uncertainties that should be elucidated and that is not always achieved.The planning of a mission or operation must be done by analyzing in detail all the information.Not information without more, but such information must.
Not many years ago, command activity was carried out in an environment of relative stability, slow changes, and the technology used was proven technology.The conflicts were clearly defined and the regulations (although almost always obsolete) did not involve a problem beyond the bureaucratic field.Today all that is over.However, the action of the command has not changed.It has to remain able to manage strategic, operational and tactical levels, although these are increasingly diluted, and for this you have to look for common actions to all of them and that a priori can be:
You must respond, quickly and effectively to the OSDA cycle (observe, place, decide, act).But this today fits.The cycle also must be able to feed and self -correction, emphasize to put it in some way and do it in real time.We therefore return to information, knowing is power.The acquisition of a large amount of data today is made in a very fast way, tools such as big data (not without complexity, the intangibility of the process, many times play against it) make it possible, it is not so much to convertthose data in intelligent information and even less extract reliable knowledge from them.
Data collection, to avoid digital diogenes syndrome, must contemplate five key dimensions to facilitate the interpretation of such data: what happened, what is happening, what could happen, what should happen, what will happen.The transmission of the data to useful knowledge must take into account the new mission profiles (now multimission) and must bastrim between flexibility and efficiency, taking into account the human factor as a fundamental gear of digital transformation.Transformation that is vital to deal with new threats and combat those already consolidated from different optics.
The change of mentality and cultural intelligence is the key to perceiving the new real threat.
AI as technological accelerator
A clear meter from which to draw conclusions from maturity regarding the different data processing techniques to information and information on real and effective knowledge is to know the state in which the different models of artificial intelligence and their evolution in thecognitive computing.
Skynet is the name of artificial intelligence developed by the company Cyberdyne Systems Corporation, a private entity subcontracted by the US Army.UU for cyber division.
Skynet's evolution starts from the development of a neuronal processor that manages to become aware of itself and eliminate, from the information chain for decision -making, properly human orders in order to eliminate human error.The evolution of this artificial intelligence, in his continuous learning, leads him to eliminate human beings, thus eliminating the possible error.Non human, no error.
Skynet is the result of fiction, the cinephiles of eighties tastes will know that it is the film Terminator directed by James Cameron and starring Arnold Schwarzenegger.Not so fiction, artificial intelligence is a technological accelerator in which to look and shows the way to the not so distant future, and that on multiple occasions it seems to be the same present.
We talked about the change of mentality, from a moral point of view, even more practical, from a hierarchical or disciplinary point of view, can the machines (the unmanned autonomous systems, the Cyborg if we cross the line of what is today real tofiction) order humans the execution of guidelines from the evolution of a logical sequence of some and zeros?In a mixed squad of manned and not manned airplanes, can it be a chief squad machine and subordinate human pilots who accept orders of artificial intelligence?
The development of technology tests the ability to adapt society.It also occurs in the field of the Armed Forces.
If we return to the present, we will see that the adoption of artificial intelligence as a meter, technological accelerator is not crazy.From a predictive point of view, artificial intelligence is already used for the development of maintenance models and in addition to an optimal way.The ways of failures, the average times between failures, and all those values that by the typical FMECA analysis model (Failure Mode Effects and Critically Analysis) were taken statistically, can now be treated by artificial intelligence, real data acquired, they are processed, self -corrected, and apply in order to avoid future failure.This is already a reality.
The maintenance, support and life cycle of the technological equipment of the Armed Forces, specifically the evolution of predictive maintenance is, in a very discreet way, the field of experimentation of future technology in the field of operations.

This is how we have gone from preventive maintenance to predictive and predictive we have evolved from the Machine Learning to Deep Learning, in a way, that approaches to the detection and resolution of failures such as the based on decision trees have ceased to be avant -garde giving wayto a more complex evolution in various techniques as well as recurring neural networks.
Skynet machines
But if we want to test the relationship between disruptive technology and the digital transformation of the armed forces, the RPAS are the technological paradigm that show the attainable challenges in the immediate future, almost present, in the bosom of a hybrid conflict.
Currently, GDPs contribute to situational awareness facilitating intelligence work in data and information collection, recognition and surveillance missions of a "safe way to troops" and all these missions can be developed simultaneously by one or more devices.Something, as we said at the beginning of this fundamental analysis for the development of command and control.
In the words of General Salvador Álvarez Pascual, deputy general director of programs of the General Directorate of Armament and Material of the Ministry of Defense, "the RPAS today constitute the greatest disruptive power within the reach of any of the Armed Forces and also easy to acquire by organisms notstate, criminal organizations and terrorist groups ".
The actions of RPAS in armed conflicts are a reality, not only in situations of surveillance and security, communications or espionage, but also as effective instruments in the projection of force in offensive missions.We have seen UAV Russians in Action in Ukraine, Turkish drones in Syria and with greater notoriety (at least from the informative point of view) in the recent armed conflict between Armenia and Azerbayán in the region, always in dispute, of the Ngorno-Karabaj.
The use of drones in armed conflicts and in general in all those hot areas and foci of instability, is a reality.Its preponderance in the future will be determined by the achievement and consolidation of the following challenges:
They are not as famous as the aerial ones and yet they are there, perhaps, even, with a clearer and more concrete facet, although not so developed.Without more detail, the USV or surface vessels are currently focused on safety and protection missions, perimeter surveillance, mining / demining operations and in rescue and emergency tasks.
The UUV, or what would become autonomous submarines, are machines with a projection towards a future in the medium term rather than present, although there are already different models.Their missions are and will without any doubt the collection of information, intelligence, poaching and rescue missions, among others.
The main mission for which the UGV, the land autonomous vehicle is designed, is to cover and support infantry in the theater of operations, especially in conflict areas and in operations of imposition of the force.
The challenges to be elucidated named at the previous points are perfectly applicable to any type of autonomous or remotely piloted vehicle, including USV, UGV and UUV.
Also in the words of General Álvarez Pascual in his inauguration speech of UNVEX Live, he indicated sharply that without RPAS the full operation of the FFAA is not feasible, especially especially in operations areas.
A little treated point, are drone swarms and within them the swarms of nanodrones.We will not deepen, but not to let this field emit.
The Nano Drones, with their phasmid capacity, can act on swarm by way of bees, wasps etc ... and inoculate any type of biological weapon to a whole population.
A few years ago the Pentagon announced the exercise carried out by several F-18 Super Hornet fighters to program an attack through a drone swarm.The fighters launched 103 drones about 16 centimeters long.Perdix, as they called them, were able to make autonomous decisions such as adjusting the mode and speed of flight to the mission, as well as "executing collective decisions".
In a relatively short period of time we have gone from the preponderance of an asymmetric conflict to hybrid through the gray zone, to which it is yet to be defined in more detail such as the unrestricted conflict and that also represents a paradigm shift.
