[edit] Naval warfare

Naval warfare is combat in and on seas and oceans.

[edit] Military robots

Military robots are autonomous or remote-controlled devices designed for military applications.

Military doctrine is a level of military planning between national strategy and unit-level tactics, techniques, and procedures.

[edit] Military unit

Military communications is defined as the transmission medium that links military components on the battlefield.

[edit] Fortifications
