According to NATO standards, the identification of lessons from combat actions (LI) and their transformation into lessons learned (LL) are crucial elements in enhancing the effectiveness of military operations. This article examines the primary component of this process – the technical exploitation of enemy weaponry and military equipment samples, regulated by NATO Allied Publication AIntP-10. Technical exploitation involves applying scientific methods to analyze collected exploitable materials (CEM) and identify their useful properties. A special type of CEM is battlefield evidence (BE), which can support law enforcement agencies in legal proceedings.
The process of technical exploitation includes the collection of samples, their initial examination, detailed technical analysis, functional testing, data collection and analysis, and the preparation of detailed reports. Technical exploitation encompasses three levels: tactical, operational, and strategic, each with its tasks and specifics. At the tactical level, immediate collection and initial analysis of samples are conducted; at the operational level, more detailed analysis and testing are performed; at the strategic level, deep research and the development of recommendations for improving one’s weapon systems are carried out.
