Artificial Intelligence (AI) enhanced systems to augment High-Value Target (HVT) location in Counterinsurgency (COIN)

Abstract

The paper analyzes the F3EAD process to ascertain its current effectiveness in a COIN environment to precisely identify HVT for exploitation within the rules of engagement. Additionally, consideration is given to existing AI technology and AI apparatus that is readily obtainable to be adapted to or is currently in military use for incorporation. Furthermore, evaluation of which F3EAD elements will benefit from having AI enhanced systems incorporated into the targeting process, and theoretically will improve upon the current stratagem. In conclusion, the thesis presents the outcome of the research to establish if the incorporation of AI with the F3EAD process shall indeed become a force multiplier in a COIN environment.
