IV. Weapons Reviews
Weapons reviews, including art. 36 reviews, will continue to play an important role in weapons development. In the evaluation of weapons systems based on emerging technologies in the area of LAWS, key challenges in the regulation and the nature of the systems should be considered, through a regular evaluation process, which should take into account the criteria detailed under human-machine interaction and be applied across the life cycle of a weapons system.
Weapons reviews must conducted with a full understanding of the weapons’ capabilities and limitations, and sufficient confidence about its effects in the expected circumstances of use.
