The rapid development of artificial intelligence and unmanned systems is changing the way wars are fought from reconnaissance to combat operations.

At the Africa Aerospace and Defence Expo, defence companies are showcasing technologies shaping the future of warfare.

South African Defence Force Chief General Rudzani Maphwanya says, “Warfare is changing rapidly and as such we cannot prepare for yesterday’s wars. We need to prepare for today’s wars and at the same time for tomorrow’s wars. You have seen that technology has now taken the forefront of warfare.”
