The aim is to study the current theory of the causal link between technological development and tactical development. The study will investigate how the implementation of new technology affects the development of tactics through the development of theories. The work will investigate whether there is new technological development that creates new tactical possibilities and changes use of tactics, or if there is a tendency for new technologies to be adapted to existing operations and thereby leaving tactics unchanged. The study attempts to explain the connection by typing and developing an existing theory to contribute to the theory development in technology and tactics.
This investigation has explained the causal link between technology and tactics through an existing theory. The work has through the study strengthened the theory and identified another cause of causation in the technology and tactics area. The study has therefore contributed to a theory development.
