Commercial and military applications of artificial intelligence (AI) systems have emerged for the first time in recent years. Some modern militaries have deployed AI in areas such as logistics support, cyber defense, medical evacuation robots, and integrated surveillance. The integration of blockchain technology, along with AI, into military operations represents a tremendous combination that could further transform critical aspects of modern warfare. Dynamic adaptation to threats; AI’s ability to learn and adapt, with Blockchain’s dynamic recognition protocol, allows defense systems to respond effectively to the rapidly changing military environment, ensuring that only authorized organizations have access to sensitive data and critical systems. Collective cybersecurity intelligence: AI data analysis capabilities and secure data sharing through blockchain power collective cybersecurity efforts. Military organizations can respond together in real-time to 202 emerging cyber threats, creating stronger defenses against sophisticated adversaries. Blockchain adds additional security, transparency, and trust to military operations with decentralized and stronger records; this review aims to analyze the impact of artificial intelligence on security operations and national defense (Brynjolfsson & McAfee, 2014).
