Abstract
Digital twin technology is being invested by many countries around the world and actively used in many areas from aircraft engines to spacecraft. A digital twin is a virtual representation that allows modeling the state of a physical entity or system, and it is created by digitalizing data collected from physical entities through sensors, so various predictions could be made by understanding the behavior of the physical entity. The importance of digital twin technology increases even more in critical systems such as the military field with low fault tolerance. In the military field, digital twin technology stands out with the advantages it offers in terms of producing cost-effective solutions and increasing efficiency and quality. In this study, the current applications of digital twin technology in the military field and the advantages to be gained by using this technology will be evaluated, and then the future predictions will be discussed.
