Wired Warfare and the Need for Speed take the lead in the latest episode of TACTICAL TO PRACTICAL.



Wired Warfare: Warfare has entered the wired age, and, thanks to this digital technology, US forces now have a clear and continuous picture of the battlefield and the ability to carry out snap tactical decisions. The soldier in this netcentric warfare even carries the miniaturized tools with him for detection, protection, identification and destruction. We also see how today's Internet began as a military system. And, on the civilian end, cool, portable information technology, biometric and software security that will keep you safe from hackers and identity thieves, the absolute latest in personal wireless communications, personal video teleconferencing, and the growing wireless network.

Need for Speed: On the battlefield every second counts. The first unit to reach the top of the next hill can own it; the fastest attack vehicle can outdistance and outmaneuver the enemy. We profile the fastest craft on the land and in the water, and examine how speed has made the tactical difference. Practically, we show off the fastest car, train and boat you can ride. We look at some of the record-breaking efforts for the World Land Speed Record.
