About the book
AI Warfighting
AI Warfighting argues that the side that wins future wars won’t be the one with the most advanced weapons, but the one that can update, adapt, and fight at the speed of software—and shows how militaries must reorganize now to do exactly that. Drawing on real-world combat experience and lessons from Ukraine, it stands apart from other AI-and-war titles by offering a clear, practical framework for commanders and leaders who need to integrate AI into operations today, not theorize about it tomorrow.
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is revolutionizing warfare and reshaping battlefields faster than military leaders can adapt. From Ukraine to the Middle East, AI-powered drones and software-driven weapon systems are outperforming traditional tools, demonstrating that the future of combat lies in technology. AI Warfighting is the first book to offer a practical framework for navigating this new era of AI-enabled warfare.
Written by warfighters with deep technology expertise, AI Warfighting introduces DevWarOps, a groundbreaking methodology inspired by the tech industry’s DevOps revolution. Just as DevOps transformed software development through collaboration, automation, and continuous improvement, DevWarOps unites software, data, and combat operations into a single, agile system. This framework reimagines military operations for a world where software defines battlefield advantage.
Divided into five parts, the book offers clear, actionable guidance for integrating AI into modern military operations. It shows how software development now shapes the OODA (Observe, Orient, Decide, Act) Loop, making data the lifeblood of warfare, reframing weapons as software systems, expanding the cyber battlefield across all domains, and demanding continuous adaptation so commanders can fight and evolve at the speed of technology.
Drawing on real-world lessons from Ukraine, Gaza, and the Middle East, AI Warfighting bridges theory and practice to show how AI can be deployed effectively on today’s battlefields. Aimed at commanders, policymakers, and defense innovators, it challenges outdated 20th-century processes and delivers a practical framework for turning constant technological change—where weapons are increasingly software platforms—into lasting military advantage, making it both an essential guide and a call to action for the future of warfighting.
