This paper examines 'smart defense', a concept introduced by NATO Secretary General Rasmussen at the 2011 Munich Security Conference. Smart defense is basically about nations building greater security with more collaboration and more coherence. The concept suggests that instead of huge platform programs, nations should focus their security contributions on plug-to-operate capabilities that have the capacity to generate an easy-to-comprehend, efficient and effective situational awareness environment.
