In the future, electronic automated technologies will be critically important elements of all defense systems. These technologies must be applied cautiously and in consideration of other critical defense plans factors. If not, expensive sophisticated technologies could be clumsily used, thereby reducing, rather than expanding, defense capabilities. Continuous evaluation of policy, associated strategy and implementing doctrine for the employment of US military forces should remain in step with the selection and acquisition of new weapons systems, including command control communications and intelligence systems, to ensure their consistency and dependability in all scenarios. The United States provides the best armament for its military forces; a lesson of the past is that the most costly, sophisticated and complex systems are not always the best. The proper mix of cost-effective, simple, dependable systems with the more sophisticated and complex is a serious challenge for the defense systems planner.
