“The New Face of Military Technology” by Peter Zeihan, the discussion revolves around the second phase of the Revolution in Military Affairs (RMA). The first phase occurred in the 1990s and 2000s when the US integrated information technologies with its military, resulting in precision weapons like drones and cruise missiles. However, the high cost and limitations of hypersonics led to their secondary role.

Now, in the second phase, there is a democratization of military technology applications. Instead of being controlled from the White House or a general’s chair, individual soldiers can use this information to make autonomous targets. This trend is most aggressively seen in Ukraine, where they employ drones for various purposes. Special forces have been targeting Russian refineries with great accuracy, causing significant damage and taking offline up to a million barrels per day of refining capacity.
