Because military electronic system maintenance has advanced and progressed more as an object of an evolutionary process than a designed or planned maintenance strategy, it is likely that its future will again respond in an evolutionary manner. Although this kind of progress will get the job done, it is not necessarily the most beneficial path. This paper will therefore discuss advanced test technology issues that will impact military electronics test strategy. In particular, the discussion will present possible scenarios on how technologies such as smart systems, artificial intelligence, automatic information exchange, VHSICS, and high capacity memories can force the military (and probably commercial) test strategy into another evolutionary cycle. The paper will discuss some possible alternatives to evolutionary development, including potential benefits and pitfalls that should be considered. Other issues such as; how the necessary maintenance support for the upcoming technologically advanced electronic systems will be included.
