Questions from the Ministry of Defence:

The rapidly evolving operating environment Disruptive technologies – New technologies such as High Performance Computing, quantum information processing and synthetic biology have the potential to radically change the nature and environment of warfare in the future. The key challenge for Defence is understanding the risks and opportunities presented by the technologies and forecasting when and where the impact on defence will occur. How should Defence proactively shape our doctrine and policy to maximise the benefits whilst minimising the threat to defence? Ministry of Defence, 2018

The rapidly evolving operating environment Understanding implication of future technology - Our service personnel and systems will be threatened by the availability of a greater number of devices with diverse sensing modalities, weapon systems with longer range, enhanced lethality and an adversary who could deploy them in ways that exploit our vulnerabilities. Our ability to objectively assess threats from technological advances in areas such as cyber, unmanned systems and additive manufacturing, and quantify their consequences is key to our understanding of future risk. Ministry of Defence, 2018
