El progreso en las tecnolog\u00edas de sistemas no tripulados ha resaltado la necesidad de cambiar el enfoque de los dominios espec\u00edficos para convertirse en un dominio independiente.\u00a0Los avances en cualquier dominio son beneficiosos en todos los dominios.\u00a0Las operaciones futuras depender\u00e1n en gran medida de capacidades multidominio que deben interactuar e integrarse sin problemas en una estructura de Fuerza Conjunta.\u00a0El Departamento de Defensa, la industria y la academia cuentan con tecnolog\u00edas, estrategias y est\u00e1ndares avanzados que desaf\u00edan la evoluci\u00f3n de los sistemas no tripulados y su integraci\u00f3n en la misi\u00f3n del Departamento de Defensa.<\/p>\n
The Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD) and the Armed Services have made extensive efforts to incorporate unmanned systems into their existing organization structures, showing the integral importance that unmanned systems considerations represent. There is still room for improved collaboration throughout the Department of Defense (DoD). Standardizing the ongoing efforts, cooperating whenever possible, and consolidating the foundational policies and technologies will enable the seamless teamwork that highlights future defense operations\u2014 whether the teams are manned, unmanned, or combined.<\/p>\n
The progress in unmanned systems technologies has highlighted the need to transition the focus from specific domains to become domain agnostic. Advances in any domain are beneficial across all domains. Future operations will rely heavily upon multi-domain capabilities that must interface and integrate seamlessly into a Joint Force structure. DoD, industry, and academia have advanced technologies, strategies, and standards that challenge the evolution of unmanned systems and their integration into the DoD mission. These major advancements, challenges, and trends can be consolidated into four critical themes, which address foundational areas of interest that will continue to accelerate unmanned systems into the future:<\/p>\n
The supporting policy, requirements, and acquisition environments must continue to evolve and advance to keep pace with the rapid technical and capability advancements of all systems. To ensure our military advantage, emphasis should be placed on the evolution, availability, and employment of unmanned technology. Alignment of DoD initiatives in unmanned systems will influence the future makeup of the U.S. military.<\/p>\n
