Introduction
The contract comes in collaboration with the new Ministerial Agency for Defense Artificial Intelligence (AMIAD), and seeks to reduce dependence on foreign technologies in sensitive military fields, thereby enhancing the independence of French decision-making.
The first phase will focus on the “Spationav” system. Artificial intelligence will automatically integrate satellite and radar data to provide the navy with a clear and immediate picture of potential threats at sea.
The big data challenge
With the proliferation of sensors, humans are no longer able to manually analyze all data. Artificial intelligence will handle initial sorting and analysis, saving commanders time to make decisions.
Conclusion
A decisive step toward building a smart army capable of facing modern information warfare.
