New Delhi: With the ongoing confrontation with China, the Indian Army is conducting a major study headed by a senior lieutenant general on advanced and disruptive weapons technology.
The study will focus on drone swarms, robotics, lasers and loiter munitions to artificial intelligence, big data analysis and algorithm warfare.
The study is crucial as China is already bolstering its conventional war-fighting capabilities by conducting cutting edge research and development on "non-kinetic and non-combat" warfare.
China already working on futuristic warfare technologies
Beijing has already started work on developing futuristic warfare technologies, like AI-powered lethal autonomous weapon systems which are set to revolutionize its military’s offensive capabilities.
The India Army released a new land warfare doctrine in 2018 stressing on the need to reform the entire war-fighting strategy ranging from the creation of agile integrated battle groups (IBGs) and expansive cyber warfare capabilities to induction plans for launch-on-demand microsatellites, directed energy weapons like lasers, AI and robotics, TOI said in its report.
Last year in January, the then Chief General of the Indian Army Bipin Rawat had emphasized on incorporating Artificial Intelligence (AI) and big data into the Indian Armed Force’s system adding that China was pumping “huge money” on this technology.
The army chief had further said that with rapid advances in technology it was important to incorporate the industrial sector into defence manufacturing.
World-class military by 2049
China through its Military-Civil Fusion, a national strategy of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), plans to develop the People’s Liberation Army (PLA) into a “world-class military” by 2049.
"Under MCF, the CCP is acquiring the intellectual property, key research, and technological advances of the world’s citizens, researchers, scholars, and private industry in order to advance the CCP’s military aims," said the US State Department in its report.
The report further observed that the CCP is systematically reorganizing the Chinese science and technology enterprise to ensure that new innovations simultaneously advance economic and military development.
