Biotechnology is playing a critical role in developing
vaccines that protect military personnel from
infectious diseases.
Biodefence
Biotechnology is also used in the development of Synthetic Biology
countermeasures to biological threats, including Synthetic biology is an emerging field that combines
chemical and biological warfare agents. engineering and biology to design and create new
biological systems. In the field of defence,
researchers are exploring the use of synthetic

technologies that can be used to enhance military
Gene Editing performance.
Real-time situational awareness: 5G networks can enable the real-time transmission of high-
1 definition video, audio, and other sensor data from remote locations. This can improve situational
awareness and help military and security personnel make informed decisions.
Enhanced communication: 5G networks can provide faster and more reliable communication
2 channels for military and security personnel, including voice, video, and data. This can help them
stay connected and coordinated in fast-paced and complex situations.
.
Autonomous vehicles and drones: 5G networks can enable the use of autonomous vehicles and
3 drones for defense and security purposes, such as surveillance, reconnaissance, and
transportation.
Augmented and virtual reality: 5G networks can support augmented and virtual reality applications,
which can enhance training and simulation exercises for military and security personnel.
Quantum computing
Quantum cryptography uses the principles of quantum Quantum sensors use the principles of quantum
mechanics to provide secure communication channels that mechanics to detect and measure extremely weak signals,
are resistant to hacking and eavesdropping. such as gravitational waves, magnetic fields, and
biological signals.
