• Abstract: Communication is vital in everyday life and critical for current and future military operations. However, conventional communication as we know it also has its limitations. Quantum communication allows some of these challenges to be overcome and, thereby, new application areas open up, also in the military domain. In this work quantum communication for military purposes is considered. Different applications are presented and the state-of-the-art of the technology is given. Also, quantum communication use cases specific for military applications are described.
