Cybernetics and Military Applications (Selected Portions)

Abstract

In this work an attempt was undertaken from the positions of Marxist- Leninst philosophy and Soviet military science to discuss the philosophical bases of cybernetics and the methodology of its application in military affairs. The most important philosophical questions of cybernetics are the clarification of its object, method, volume and content of basic concepts, future of development, and its social (including military) value. The examination of methodological problems of the application of cybernetics in the military affairs proposes the discussion of questions of the specific nature of the sphere of control of a weapon and troops, of the paths for the perfection of systems and processes of control, of contradictions in this area, of automation as means of resolution of these contradictions, of the relationship of man and technology in the automated systems of control of troops, etc.
