The military funding of science has had a powerful transformative effect on the practice and products of scientific research since the early 20 century. Particularly since World War I, advanced science based technologies have been viewed as essential elements of a successful military. World War I is often called the chemists war, both for the extensive use of poison gas and the importance of nitrates and advanced high explosives. Technological superiority has been and continues to be a cornerstone of OUT national military strategy. Technologies such as radar, jet engines, nuclear weapons, night vision, smart weapons, stealth, the global positioning system, and vastly more capable information management systems have changed warfare dramatically. Today’s technological edge allows us to prevail across the broad spectrum of conflict decisively and with relatively low casualties. The book deeply highlights the military technology and defence manpower. The present book aims to achieve some ambitious goals.
