RUSI Journal Vol 160 No 2, April/May 2015, pp.58-67 (127) Summary: With the funding behind this long-held military edge now being scaled back as part of a wider austerity drive, it is ever-more important that governments invest their money wisely and that new technology is operationalised as effectively as possible. In this article, the authors draw on interviews with policy-makers, industry figures and military personnel as well as novel-technology case studies to argue for the 'operationalisation' of uncertainty in the early design stages of capability planning, tehreby allowing for the inclusion of mature technology at a much later date.
