Artificial intelligence in multidomain operations: a SWOT analysis

Multidomain operations are a strategic concept that integrates multiple domains of operation (land, sea, air, space and cyber) to achieve common objectives in a complex and dynamic environment. In the context of rapidly evolving technology, Artificial Intelligence (AI) has become an essential tool for optimizing and streamlining multi-domain operations, providing innovative solutions for sectors such as mobility and maneuver of forces and weapons, logistics, decision-making and other military technologies. In this paper, we will highlight the applications, benefits and challenges associated with the implementation of AI in multi-domain operations through a SWOT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats) analysis and propose some future development directions.
