👉 A system weapon, often referred to as an autonomous weapon system (AWS), is a type of military technology designed to select and engage targets without human intervention or significant human control. These systems integrate advanced sensors, artificial intelligence, and decision-making algorithms to identify, classify, and neutralize threats autonomously. They can operate in various environments, from land and sea to air, and are capable of executing complex missions with precision. While proponents argue that system weapons can reduce human casualties and improve operational efficiency, critics raise concerns about accountability, ethical implications, and the potential for unintended escalation or misuse in conflict zones.
