Miliutina, Kseniia ; Kučera, Tomáš (advisor) ; Bahenský, Vojtěch (referee)
In the near future, the new global technological race will result in the introduction of cutting-edge advancements in the military sphere. All of the world's major countries will be involved in this, because any lag from their competitors increases vulnerability, which will be tough to conceal with conventional weaponry. Furthermore, the advent of new technology may result in significant changes in the armed forces' strategy, planning, and organization. That is why Russia is aggressively pursuing the development of Artificial Intelligence and incorporating it into its military strength in order to preserve its military potential and effectively fulfill its national and foreign policy (FP) goals. The purpose of this research is to provide a complete analysis of the key stages of development and future use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Russia's military strength. At the present, AI is one of the highest priority advanced fields that the Kremlin regards as the primary mechanism for successfully implementing its internal and external strategic goals.

Development of the Czech defense industry after the dissolution of the federation
Radochová, Hana Erika ; Vokoun, Marek (advisor) ; Loužek, Marek (referee)
The defense industry historically belonged to the traditional branches and always made the considerable part of the Czech industry. The peculiarity of the arms production and the whole defense industry is its narrow connection with the state, state policy and international position. The division of the private and public sector was changing in different periods, but it was always in a large interest of the state to keep in its property some parts of the production and repair capacities. At present it still occurs consolidation or closure of some state enterprises. Also the state policy significantly influenced the location of arms races on the state territory in the connection on its emergency. The location of defense industry by itself had and even now has the great influence on the general employment in particular regions. The peculiarity of the defense industry is the great influence of technical innovations and high demand of machine equipment and the quality of staff. In analytical section we showed the productivity of weaponry in the Czech Republic in time and space with assistance of chosen indicators and regressive analysis of longer time span; Increasing productivity is reflected in the Liberec and Usti region, particularly through developing/building the armored and other vehicles and equipment, which seems to be very effective nowadays. It is interesting that state enterprises seem to be more efficient than enterprises in private ownership. From the data we can draw some other conclusions that the changes in the structure of Army Forces of Czech Republic have direct influence on the structure and the size of the defense industry. It is also possible to observe direct connection of big army contracts of Czech Army and efficiency of particular firms. The peculiarity is that the state is keeping the possibility to make the part of the contracts directly to its state companies, which greatly influence their efficiency of economy. Because of the shown dependence of political decisions on the structure of ownership and efficiency of arms production it would be interesting to follow the development in this field on the basis of White book about defense.
