Balanced use of artificial intelligence
Technological development has always been extremely important to the armed forces. Its influence can be seen in weapons, sensor and platform systems, in soldiers’ equipment, in all forms of military actions and within the Defence Ministry’s own organisational operations. The role of artificial intelligence (AI) is increasing too.

R&D case: SCOTT- Smart Controller Training Tool
Diverse and realistic scenarios for fighter controller training. Fighter controllers are essential for the safety and effectiveness of fighter pilots. They provide the pilots with a complete and correct air picture. Fighter controllers must be well trained to observe, assess and communicate in rapidly evolving situations. This includes training scenarios that are diverse and have realistic fidelity and scale in terms of the platforms involved and their behaviour.
