The development and application of modern technology plays a pivotal role in modern warfare. Therefore it is evident, that projects on large material renewal and acquisition attract a lot of attention in both the military and the political scene. Introducing new technologies and novel military platforms can lead to fundamentally re-thinking on their usage and of course on the budget involved. When it comes to the acquisition of novel technologies, we therefore expect exciting years ahead.In view of these new developments this book presents an outlook on emerging technologies currently being studied by the Netherlands Defence Academy and its partners. This book does not only deal with new future technologies themselves, but also with new operational concepts and paradigms that are created by these technologies, viz., planning, system integration, and life-cycle management.Prof. Dr. ir.
