AN EVALUATION ON MILITARY APPLICATIONS OF NANOTECHNOLOGYKeywords: Nanoteknoloji,Asker? Alan,Silahl? Kuvvetler,Hava Kuvvetleri Abstract: Technology can play an important role in addressing the issue of the development of society in the modern world. Each new technology which emerges rapidly causes a reduce in the effectiveness of the prior technologies or complete disappearence. Nanotechnology which is seen as one of the technological revolution of 21st Century is placed within these new technologies. Nanotechnology which develops rapidly has begun to show its effects in every aspect of life. Military context is one of the important application area of nanotechnology. So, many countries who have awareness of the potential impact of nanotechnology in the military context have established their own national nanotechnology initiatives and began to quietly work in this area. However, Turkey has not established his own nanotechnology initiative, yet. The specific objective of this study is to increase the awareness of this new technology, and highlights the necessity and the significance of this technology in the military context. For this purpose, the concept of nanotechnology is discussed from the security perspective and Some speculations are suggested for future
