What if the next war isn't started by a general-but by an algorithm?

In a world where decisions are made at machine speed, the future of war is being coded in silence. This groundbreaking book takes you inside the labs, command centers, and classified programs where autonomous weapons AI, quantum warfare tech, and cyber-physical systems are quietly rewriting what it means to fight, to defend, and to decide who lives or dies.

This is not just a book about smart weapons-it's an unflinching look at how nations are engineering the capacity to wage war without human hesitation, human morality, or even human presence. As hypersonic missile strategy erases response time and autonomous kill decision systems learn to anticipate intent, we enter a new era where ethics, accountability, and power itself must be redefined.

Perfect for readers of political thrillers, military futurism, and real-world cyberwarfare and geopolitics, this book is essential for defense analysts, technologists, policymakers, and anyone asking what it means to survive-let alone lead-in the age of digital deterrence.

Inside, you'll discover:

- How AI is already being used in modern warfare to predict and pre-empt threats before they happen

- The chilling truth behind autonomous weapons AI and their role in recent drone strikes

- Why ethical AI in defense is not just a technical issue, but a philosophical and strategic one

- How future military technology is quietly shifting the balance of global power

This book doesn't just inform-it compels. You'll walk away not just with knowledge, but with a framework to think more clearly, act more wisely, and question more deeply the systems shaping tomorrow.

The trigger has already been pulled. The question is-who programmed it?
