The nature of warfare is shifting rapidly, with future conflicts expected to be shaped increasingly by cutting-edge technologies, such as artificial intelligence, autonomous systems, and quantum computing. It was a key theme during the ‘Raksha Navachar Samvaad’ interaction with iDEX startups held in New Delhi.

Speaking at the event, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh said, “The battlefield has changed. The wars of tomorrow will be fought with algorithms, autonomous systems and AI.” He added that technologies such as drones, anti-drone systems, quantum computing, and directed-energy weapons will define the way wars are fought in the coming years. He referred to the recent Operation Sindoor as an example of this evolving trend.
