In response to the deteriorating security situation there is presently a rapid growth and development within the Swedish Armed Forces. New domains for warfare and territorial conflicts such as the cyber domain and space are getting more prominent, and technical systems gain increasing artificial intelligence and autonomy. Sweden is, as other nations, in the process of figuring out how to perform multidomain operation. An important part of this process is the harmonisation of doctrines. Sweden is also a new member of NATO, which requires analyses of correspondences between national and NATO doctrines. The Swedish Air Force has developed an air defence concept to meet the new challenges. This concept needs to be implemented in doctrine as well as technical-tactical development. Cognitive Work Analysis (CWA) is a framework for the analysis, design, and evaluation of complex sociotechnical systems. The analysis focuses on the work the system is expected to perform, which enables considerations regarding work organisation and allocation of responsibilities to human or artificial agents. The CWA framework has been applied to a wide range of domains, while of particular interest for the present project is the application of CWA by Neelam Naikar and colleagues for theimprovement of doctrines for the Royal Australian Air Force. The envisioned project aim is to apply the CWA framework to the development of doctrines for the Swedish Air Force. While inspired by Naikar’s approach, the CWA framework will be applied somewhat differently, in the hope of contributing to developing it further.
