The paper reveals the integration of advanced technologies in future officer education, suggesting implications on military training.
While emerging technologies are transforming the character of war and officer education, the core principles of war remain constant. Focusing on European military academies, AI-enabled decision support systems, unmanned platforms, and cyber capabilities can be integrated into the basic education of future officers.
