Synopsis: From the Cover: STAR 21 provides an expert analysis of how the Army can prepare itself for the battlefield of the future-where soldiers will wear "smart" helmets and combat chemical warfare with vaccines produced in days to counter new threats. This book summarizes a wide variety of new developments, including robotics, "brilliant" munitions, medical support, laser sensors, biotechnology, and novel materials. Taking into account reliability, deployability, and other necessary characteristics of military systems, the volume identifies the emerging technologies that offer the greatest potential payoff for the Army. It presents practical recommendations for pursuing their development and integrating them into Army operations.
