Abstract

In the defense industry, which is one of the determinants of the political and economic power of the countries, there is a constant need for change, innovation, and modernization in parallel with the technological developments in the world. Therefore, in the field of defense technologies, Military and non-governmental organizations are working to develop high-performance armor systems that will increase mobility by reducing weight and against developing weapon systems. In this paper will be discussed, how artificial intelligence (AI) can be used for the improvement of weapon efficiency.
