Otonom Silah Sistemlerinin Uluslararası Silah Hukuku Ve Politiği Açısından Sorunsal Meseleleri

Harp teknolojisinin gelişimi bilgi çağı ile müthiş bir ivme kazanmıştır. Nano-robot ve otonom silah sistemleri gibi yeni askeri teknolojiler uluslararası çatışma ve silah hukuku açısından yeni tartışma ve endişelere sebep olmaktadır. Bilgi, sensör ve havacılık teknolojilerinin müşterek ürünü olan Otonom Silah Sistemlerinin  (OSS) örneklerini birçok ordu tarafından kullanılmaya başlandığını gözlemlemekteyiz. Bu kertede çatışma ve silah hukuku uzmanları tarafından Otonom Silah Sistemlerinin kullanımı ve geliştirilmesinin Uluslararası Silah ve Politiği açısından yeni sorunsallar yaratacağı değerlendirilmektedir. Bu makale de öncelikle OSS’lerin tanımı yapılmaya çalışılmıştır. Sonrasında OSS’lerin potansiyel kullanımının Uluslararası Silah Hukuku ve Politiği açısından değerlendirilmiş ve somut örnekler verilerek analiz edilmiştir.  Son olarak, Bu araştırma makalesi mevcut Ölümcül Otonom Silah Sistemlerinden örnekler de verilerek muhtemel sorunsalları ortaya koymak ve kullanımlarına yönelik çözüm yollarına ışık tutmak amacıyla hazırlanmıştır.

Problematic Issues of Autonomous Weapon Systems In terms of International Law of Weaponry and Politics

The development of war technology has gained tremendous momentum with the information age. New military technological developments such as Nano robots and Autonomous Weapons Systems have caused new debate and concerns in terms of International Conflict and Weaponry Law. In this respect, many examples of Autonomous Weapon Systems (AWS), the joint product of information, sensors and aviation technologies, have been used by many armies. Conflict and weaponry law experts are raising the alarm that the development and deployment of the Autonomous Weapon Systems in the theater of conflict will create new problems in terms of International Weaponry Law and International Relations. In this study, the description of AWS is made; the possible use of lethal AWS is evaluated in terms of International Weaponry Law and assessed with regard to International Politics. Finally, this study is prepared in order to describe these potentially problematic issues and establish solutions in the context of existing offensive Autonomous Weapon Systems.
