The legal review process is typically technology neutral. It covers weapons, means and methods of warfare irrespective of their enabling technology or their effects. Some technologies tend to raise particular and sometimes unique questions. States may choose to approach these technologies in the usual way, put in place adaptations to the review process, or even create separate review mechanisms that are either alternative or additional to the ordinary review process.
This section of the portal highlights the peculiarities of particular technologies from a legal review perspective, and provides references to resources that may assist in the review of weapons, means and methods of warfare utilising such technologies.
