Технологічні Інновації У Підвищенні Ефективності Оборонного Виробництва

Technological innovations are a key factor in increasing the competitiveness of the national defense industry of any country. Today, arms manufacturing enterprises are increasingly building their business models not on the basis of commercialization of their own ideas, but on the use of external innovative developments. Today, the concept of open innovation completely dominates almost all development strategies of defense companies. The purpose of the study is to improve the existing methodological approaches and methodological tools for assessing the impact of technological innovations on the development of defense production. The object of the study is the process of introducing technological innovations into defense production. Methods used in the study: modern methods and technologies of scientific cognition, tools of economic analysis, observation methods to reflect trends in the development of military operations and vectors of their impact on innovations in the defense industry, methods of specification using appropriate digital tools. The main hypothesis of the study was the assumption that there is a relationship between specific technological innovations and fundamental changes in defense production processes. The article proves that innovative technologies have become key platforms for promoting creativity, cooperation and development of advanced technical solutions in the defense sector. The main types of technological innovations are identified: product, process, administrative, technical, radical and incremental innovations. It is proved that investments in military research and development can significantly affect innovation through various channels. The intertwining of military research and development (R&D) with technological innovation acts as a catalyst for the evolution and rise of several key sectors. The author's approach to classifying new technologies aimed at increasing sustainability and efficiency is proposed. The degree of improvement of military capabilities is proposed as the main classification feature. The article provides forecasts of the development of the overall IT spending landscape in 2025, which will be characterized by a more realistic and balanced approach to technologies: provision of information services; solving customer problems; practical application of software and tools. The originality and practical significance of the study is confirmed by the author's refined approaches to the impact of technological innovations on the production of defense products and the main directions of its investment. Conclusions and Prospects for Further Research. Unlike other industries, technologies and innovations in the defense sector are quite fast-moving, so the industry has to keep up with them by investing significant funds in a fairly short time. It is not enough for defense industries to master the latest technologies; it is also important for them to integrate them into long-standing systems and strategies. One of the key aspects of the introduction of new and revolutionary technologies into defense production is the problem of their legal and ethical use. Prospects for further research lie in exploring productive areas of synergy between military technologies and commercial production, as well as opportunities to strengthen control over the introduction of the latest developments in destructive technologies
