Including artificial intelligence into missile guiding systems marks a radical change in capability. Based on difficult combat conditions, AI-powered systems can make split-second judgements, learn from experience, and react to unanticipated events. These systems increase target recognition, trajectory optimisation, and countermeasure resistance by means of powerful neural networks and machine learning algorithms. While keeping tight rules of engagement, the technology helps missiles to independently recognise, prioritise, and engage several targets.
