The amount of potentially usable battlefield data is rapidly expanding, and it takes a long time to synchronize it. Just the first part of that challenge is huge. Quarterback, in other words, would help commanders do two things better and faster, understand exactly what’s on the battlefield and then select the most appropriate strategy based on the assets available and other factors. The project, about a month old, aims for an AI assistant that can look out across the battlefield, taking in all the relevant data from drones, radar, ground robots, satellites, cameras mounted in soldier goggles, etc., and then output the best strategy for taking out the enemy(s) with whatever weapons available. Army has launched a new effort, dubbed Project Quarterback, to accelerate tank warfare by synchronizing battlefield data with the aid of artificial Intelligence.

For the wars of the future, that’s too slow. Even the 2003 Battle of Baghdad, in which U.S.

In fact, that attempt lasted nearly two months and ultimately failed.

In July 1943, for instance, German military planners believed that their advance on the Russian city of Kursk would be over in ten days. Tank warfare isn’t as easy to predict as hulking machines lumbering across open spaces would suggest.
