Summary, etc. Three dominant thematics emerge from the biological mimicry and camouflage literature, namely, concealment, deception, and imitation. These phenomena are interesting in their own right, but conceptually have similar analogs in the military context that have attracted only minimal intellectual curiosity. Accordingly, the purpose of this paper is to apply biological mimicry and camouflage concepts to the military environment. Concealment in the form of camouflage is traced from its nineteenth century origins to the military's imminent twenty-first century perfection of an “invisibility cloak”. Military deception is the art of duping enemies with fakes and dummies. Finally, imitation is examined from three perspectives: firstly, replacement of military personnel with animals; secondly, exploration of bioengineering, including exploitation of avian aerodynamics, insect biophysical structures, and mammal sonar attributes; and, thirdly, Artificial Intelligence that is driving military mimicry along an evolutionary path towards robots, swarms, and avatars in an emerging and novel military technology revolution.
