Technology to play pivotal role on combat future: CDS

With warfare increasingly becoming “networked, digitised and intelligent”, technology would play a pivotal role in deciding the outcome of combats in the future, Chief of Defence Staff General (CDS) Anil Chauhan said here on Friday.

Addressing the Chanakya Dialogues conclave here on the “Bharat 2047: Atmanirbhar In War” theme, he said data-centric warfare includes looking at network security, redundancy, latency in data flow and the use of artificial intelligence as well as storage, collection and analytics of data.
