Note, in particular, this segment: “Future generations of drones will interact with artificial intelligence that also supports other elements in the matrix of deterrence and defense. AI will privilege deterrence by denial compared to deterrence by credible threat of unacceptable retaliation.” This, and subsequent paragraphs, provide a segway to the rapidly changing evolution of strategy and conflict. Even if first principles remain unchanged, technology, and access to it from a variety of actors, reshuffle the game like never before. We’re up for strategic surprises and rude wake up calls unless we adapt and anticipate. This is valid in all domains, especially space.
