Abstract
Findings: “Trust and public acceptance” and “cultural-religious beliefs” have been identified as elements with critical uncertainty that impact the future space of microchip implantation for soldiers, and based on these two critical uncertainties, four scenarios have been narrated.
Conclusion: This study has provided strategic Information about the use of microchip implantation for the military in order to inform policymakers so that, while raising the awareness of those involved in this field, necessary measures can be taken to improve the quality of policymaking.
