The institute’s representatives said that military conflicts have and will
remain part of international affairs. Considering the cyclical nature of
history, the possibility of new armed conflicts cannot be ruled out also in the
Baltic region, but small countries are limited in their possibilities to defend
themselves against adversaries with highly developed military capabilities.
Military technology, however, can reduce this gap, the institute’s experts
said.
The use of unmanned ground vehicles (UGV) in infantry operations is one of
the fastest developing areas of military technology. Progress in this area is
driven by the wish to reduce the security risks soldiers face in the
battlefield and to boost infantry units’ combat ability.
In the book, researchers and practitioners from various sectors are
reviewing the current status of military UGV development and are analyzing the
effectiveness of UGVs being used in support of infantry operations.
The new book follows the publication of "Digital Infantry Battlefield
Solution. Introduction to Ground Robotics" in 2016.
The online version of the book is freely available at the Latvian
Institute of International Affairs’ website.
