The need for militaries to be equipped with the best technology to gain an advantage over opposing forces has spurred the development of cutting-edge technology for as long as there have been wars. From early advancements in metallurgy to create a superior sword to the advent of gunpowder for guns and cannons, military tech has always been at the forefront of human invention. This has altered the nature of warfare dramatically over time and created vast fighting forces with a high degree of specialization and impressive combined capabilities.

Military tech changed significantly over the centuries following the medieval period and the industrial revolution created even bigger and more powerful arms and equipment that greatly expanded the effectiveness of fighting forces. However, the 20th century sped this development up exponentially and the advancements in tech resulting from WWI and WWII helped to create the modern world as we know it. Modern militaries are outfitted with a plethora of complex and complicated hardware and software that are often unmatched by anything in the civilian world, and the 21st century is posed to transform militaries and warfare at an even faster pace than the previous century. Given the breadth of capabilities covered by modern militaries of the world, it would be impossible to cover everything. Therefore, with a focus on the United States Armed Forces only, here are 10 ways this technology is transforming the military.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
