INTERNATIONAL MILITARY AND MILITARY-TECHNICAL COOPERATION: CHALLENGES AND PROMISING DIRECTIONS BASED ON THE EXPERIENCE OF UZBEKISTAN, THE CIS AND FOREIGN COUNTRIES
Odilbek Oblokulov ,Abstract
The article examines the current state of Uzbekistan’s international military and military-technical cooperation with CIS countries, Türkiye, Pakistan and other foreign partners. It analyses major trends, challenges and prospective areas of cooperation amid the transformation of modern warfare and the growing role of artificial intelligence, unmanned systems, digital command and control, cyber technologies and precision weapons.
The study argues that military-technical cooperation should move beyond a predominantly procurement-oriented model towards an approach based on diversification, technology transfer, localization, service infrastructure, national human-capital development and strengthening the domestic defence-industrial base. The author proposes the concept of “Diversification – Technology Transfer – National Capability” and a corresponding 3D model.
Keywords
