A strategic session was held at the Military Innovation Technopolis (VIT) “Era” under the leadership of First Deputy Prime Minister Denis Manturov.
The event was attended by Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Chernyshenko, Deputy Minister of Defense Alexey Krivoruchko, representatives of the Ministry of Industry and Trade and the Ministry of Digital Development, members of the board of the Military-Industrial Commission, heads of military command bodies, representatives of enterprises of the defense industry complex and the national defense industry complex.
During the meeting, issues of the influence of artificial intelligence on increasing the combat effectiveness of units in combat zones and increasing the combat capabilities of weapons, equipment, and control systems were considered.
“All leading countries of the world are aware of the growing role of artificial intelligence technologies, big data processing and cloud computing, having included their development among their strategic priorities. In fact, we can talk about another race of technological competition, comparable to the arms race and space exploration programs. Russia as a whole is following in the wake of global trends. Russian companies are developing technological products, including large language models, computer vision, machine learning, based on neural network tools. Most of the existing and planned developments have dual-use potential. Our task is to use them in solving applied military problems,” Denis Manturov noted.
Artificial intelligence is used for automatic processing and analysis of intelligence data, can improve information support for combat operations, increase the ability to predict threats and the course of conflict development. Digital technologies are the basis for the mass introduction of robotic systems and swarm interaction of unmanned aerial vehicles.
“Artificial intelligence is a breakthrough and fast technology that is important for both civilian and military needs. In the coming years, we will increase the volume of funding for AI research. We plan to accumulate these resources within the framework of a single AI research program. It is planned to allocate 5% of the state budget for funding scientific research in the field of AI and 15% of the state budget for funding research in other areas, but with the mandatory use of AI tools. Consolidation of these resources in the field of AI and training of specialists are extremely important for achieving technological sovereignty and other goals set by the President of Russia,” said Dmitry Chernyshenko.
“It is also important to use the capabilities of AI analytics for a deep analysis of the conflict in Ukraine and further training of domestic intelligent systems,” Denis Manturov emphasized.
The session participants discussed the formation of information and computing systems for the trusted use of elements of artificial intelligence for military purposes, as well as the experience of transitioning to a new generation of drones on neuroprocessors.
An exhibition of new samples and technologies developed by residents of innovative scientific and technological centers and innovative development funds of the Russian Federation was opened for the participants of the strategic session. A number of samples using AI technologies were selected by the Main Directorate for Innovative Development of the Ministry of Defense of Russia together with the People’s Front for use in the special military operation zone.
In particular, control modules for receiving video images, analyzing, capturing and automatically tracking targets, semi-autonomous underwater robotic systems (RTS) for reconnaissance, technical control of underwater objects, delivery and manipulation of cargo in difficult underwater conditions, unified consoles for simultaneous control of a group of RTS (several unmanned boats, ground-based RTS or a swarm of UAVs) were presented.
Manufacturers also presented universal flight controller control units based on technical vision. In particular, in complex electronic environments, these devices retain full functionality of video analytics and allow you to hit a target when you lose control of the drone or return to the base on your own.
In addition, the participants of the strategic session considered unmanned aircraft systems for intercepting air targets. Interceptor control systems with artificial intelligence allow for automatic detection and capture of targets for subsequent neutralization with a net, special pellets or kinetic damage.
