Tech and Modern Warfare: A Former General and Former Security Advisor Weigh In

The nature of war is changing quickly. In hot spots around the world, the battlefield is increasingly tech-driven. It’s clear in the Russian-Ukraine conflict where drone expertise has become an essential tool. “The frontlines are incredibly lethal. The moment the Russians show themselves, hundreds of suicide drones can be launched to take them out,” says United States General David Petraeus who commanded US-led coalitions in Iraq and Afghanistan. In fact, Ukraine recently offered to help the US in its drone warfare with Iran. Petraeus talks with Anne Neuberger, former deputy national security advisor in the Biden Administration, and Politico’s Dasha Burns about the future of modern warfare.
