Russia invaded Ukraine in February 2022. Many military experts predicted that Russia could defeat Ukraine within a week, but the Ukraine-Russia War has not been going as expected. Indeed, Ukraine military has been defending well and seems to fight more efficiently than Russian military. There are many reasons for this unexpected situation and one apparent thing is due to artificial intelligence (AI) technologies. This study focused on AI-enabled combats that the Armed Forces of Ukraine has carried out around Siverskyi Donets River, the Crimean Peninsula, and suburbs of Kyiv. For more systematic analysis, the revolution in military affairs (RMA) theory was applied. There are four significant implications inferred by studying current Ukraine-Russia War. First, AI technologies are effective even in the current status and seems to be more influential. Second, hyper-connected network by satellite communications must be needed to enhance the AI weapon effects. Third, military AI technologies should be based on the civil-military cooperation to keep up with pace of technological innovation. Fourth, AI ethics in military should be seriously considered and established in the use of AI technologies. We expect that this study could help ROK Armed Forces to be modernized in the revolutionary fashion, especially for manned and unmanned teaming (MUM-T) system.

In this study, based on the awareness of the problem of current scientific guard systems of ROKA, We suggested a develoment direction for scientific guard system applying 3 elements of Revolution in Military Affairs by 2035. To this end, we analyzed challenges of current scientific guard systems and reviewed similar cases in other countries. Based on this, We suggested a develoment direction for scientific guard system, comprised of the concept of gurad operation, the organization of guard troops, and MUM-T(manned and unmanned teaming) by applying the framework of 3 elements of military innovation (operation concept, organization, weapon system). In order to overcome challenges at hand, we need a innovative scientific guard systems that applies MUM-T based on high technology along with agile&smart guard troops.
