This study comprehensively analyzes the impact of rapidly evolving military drone technology on modern battlefields and national security, aiming to propose effective response strategies. Recent technological advancements in military drones, particularly the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and autonomous systems, improvements in stealth technology, and the emergence of drone swarm technology, pose new challenges to traditional military strategies and defense systems. Through literature review and case analysis, this research examines the trends in military drone technological development and identifies the nature of the resulting security threats. Specifically, an in-depth analysis of the North Korean military drone incursion incident in December 2022 provides insights into the reality of military drone threats and the current state of response systems in South Korea's security environment. The research findings indicate that effective countermeasures against military drone threats require a comprehensive approach encompassing technological solutions as well as legal, institutional, and ethical considerations. Consequently, this study proposes key response strategies including the establishment of multi-layered defense systems, development of AI-based anti-drone systems, creation of international drone regulation frameworks, and formulation of ethical guidelines for the use of autonomous weapon systems. In conclusion, considering the rapid pace of military drone technology development, the study emphasizes the need for continuous research and policy development to proactively address the changing security landscape. By providing a comprehensive understanding of military drone threats and systematic response measures, this research is expected to offer valuable foundational data for future national security strategy formulation and military policy decision-making.
