Hammers and Nails: When Military Innovation Becomes a Dead End

Original: Hammers and Nails: Military Innovation as a Strategic Dead End

Military Strategy Magazine has published a piece arguing that military innovation can become a strategic dead end, suggesting armed forces risk treating new technologies as 'hammers' in search of 'nails' rather than tools shaped by strategic needs. The argument prompts reflection on whether current defense innovation programs serve genuine strategic purposes or simply chase technological novelty.

Why now: Ongoing debates over defense spending and technology-driven military doctrine make critiques of innovation culture timely.
