Readying the Naval Services for What’s Over the Horizon 
By Robert P. Kozloski, CHIPS: “Experts claim that society is at the verge of a Fourth Industrial Revolution. This change presents both challenges and opportunities for the Department of the Navy, where warfighting considerations are rightfully privileged. The management aspects of technology are only a secondary consideration, but may have enormous consequences if they are not addressed.”

The missing link to preparing for military operations in megacities and dense urban areas
(Army Times) With the global trends of rapidly rising populations, urbanization, urban crime and political violence, military personnel will find themselves deploying into dense urban areas. 
 
How to reshape the US military in 5 steps
(Defense News) The U.S. National Defense Strategy calls for increased investments to “restore warfighting readiness and field a more lethal force” capable of defeating aggression by the nation’s most capable adversary states. This is warranted: War gaming and analysis done at the think tank Rand point to troubling trends in the capabilities of U.S. and allied forces relative to those of key adversaries. 
 
Fueling a future war in the Pacific
(War On The Rocks) It is striking how little U.S. logistics vulnerabilities have improved since WWII. Energy for military operations in the geographically vast Pacific region still primarily takes the form of military-grade fuels used by ships and aircraft. That fuel is still mostly stored in fuel terminals in known locations, many of which are in range of potential adversaries’ aircraft, submarines, and surface-to-surface missiles. 
 
Accelerating multi-domain operations: evolution of an idea

Joint Artificial Intelligence Center Created Under DoD CIO
An Assessment of the Likely Roles of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning Systems 
By Ali Crawford, Divergent Options: “Though a battlefield in the future will likely see autonomous decision-making technology as a norm, the transition between modern applications of artificial intelligence and potential applications will focus on incorporating human-machine teaming into existing frameworks.

Creating the Conditions for Artificial Intelligence to Thrive in the Pentagon 
By Richard Kuzma, War on the Rocks: “Data is the lifeblood of AI, and a crucial part of the infrastructure that will need to undergird these new technologies as the U.S. military adopts them.
