AI-enabled systems do indeed pose a threat to our security, in the hands of our adversaries, and it is imperative that we do not cede them a vital advantage. Imagine the latest Directed Energy Weapons using lightning-fast target detection algorithms to protect our ships, and the digital backbone which supports all this using AI to identify and defend against cyber threats.ĪI has enormous potential to enhance capability, but it is all too often spoken about as a potential threat. Imagine autonomous resupply systems and combat vehicles, delivering supplies and effects more efficiently without putting our people in danger.

Imagine a soldier on the front line, trained in highly-developed synthetic environments, guided by portable command and control devices analysing and recommending different courses of action, fed by database capturing and processing the latest information from hundreds of small drones capturing thousands of hours of footage. To meet these various challenges, Defence must prioritise research, development and experimentation, maintaining strategic advantage by exploiting innovative concepts and cutting-edge technological advances – and Artificial Intelligence is one of the technologies essential to Defence modernisation. As we stand in solidarity with the global community in challenging the actions of the Putin regime, we recognise that Defence must be relevant and effective across the spectrum of competition and conflict. Russia’s appalling invasion of Ukraine removes any blurring of the line between war and peace, but was preceded by many years of malign activity. However, we also noted that we live in an era of persistent global competition, characterised by hybrid and sub-threshold threats. The tragic events unfolding in Ukraine are a stark reminder of the importance of ensuring that our armed forces can meet the sort of conventional military challenge we hoped our continent had left behind in the 20th Century. Since then, Russia’s illegal invasion of Ukraine has brought all the horrors of industrial-age warfare back to the heart of Europe. We warned then that these steps were a necessary response to the deteriorating global security environment, including state-based threats. Foreword by the Secretary of State for DefenceĪ year ago, we published the Integrated Review, committing to strengthen security and defence and to modernise our armed forces.
