Summary/Abstract: Over the past decades were revealed all over the world certain aspects which have become known in the literature by syntagmas such as the “Revolution in Military Affairs” or the “multidimensional modern confrontation” etc. These aspects, which have a strong influence on the military phenomenon in all its sides, highlighted some major changes which are virtually unprecedented in terms of military thinking, ways of confrontation, the extending of the environment where the confrontation took place, and not at least, the diversification of technologies used during the confrontation. More and more obvious become the tendency to use the unconventional technologies (nonNBC), which also are soon adapted asymmetric or hybrid confrontation and less the classical. An increasingly obvious trend is the use of unconventional (non-NBC) technologies, which are also adapted rather to the asymmetric or hybrid confrontation and less to the classical military confrontation. In this tendency are also included some technologies which tend to be applied in areas such as modern means of transportation, concealment and camouflage systems, new types of armaments.
