I am conducting a NASA-funded Undergraduate Research Opportunity Project dubbed "Tomorrow Wars: AI and Unmanned Teaming in the US Military." This paper examines the role of DoD policy regarding LAWS, the manufacturing and technology implications of the "Replicator" program, and the strategic implications of autonomous teaming for the current balance of power against our peer adversaries. Focused on achieving deliverables in the form of policy and force structure recommendations for offensive and defensive capabilities in a newly autonomous world, this paper draws upon the Ukrainian and Gaza conflicts to examine how even the first generation of autonomous systems have changed battlefield planning. I am conducting this under the supervision/collaboration of Professor Rebecca Davis Gibbons. She is an expert in nuclear weapons and nonproliferation and the author of The Hegemons Tool Kit: US Leadership and the Politics of the Nuclear Nonproliferation Regime.The research will conclude with local and regional presentations of my work and research and policy recommendations for the US military and development base.
