Abstract
The report gives an overview of the requirements for time critical precision engagement, as seen from a technical perspective which is relevant for the project time critical precision engagement. The object is to describe the requirements which are deemed most important for the continued activity in this field. The radically altered conditions for Swedish forces, within and outside the country's borders, will raise completely new demands on precision strike capability. Changes in the threat scenario and possibilities to meet these are discussed, as well as the future technological developments and some issues raised by these developments. Finally the most important problems and aspects of these which are "system independent" are summarised, and which therefore can be assumed to give basic conditions for future research in the field.
