Summary/Abstract: In the process of elaboration and development of scientific research papers in the field of military sciences, the need for perfect academic ethics has always been emphasized, especially in the last decade. From the experience gained we found that it would be useful to clarify some aspects regarding the academic and research ethics, which would constitute a potential model for writing scientific papers by the bachelor students, master’s degree and doctoral students of our academic and not only. Ethics is a science that studies morals. From a social perspective, ethics is a set of rules of conduct that regulate the relationships between people and their role in society. In research field, there is an unwritten social contract in which the researchers or practicing members of a profession promote the ideals of the society from which they come in order to reach high standards, while the response of the society is for the benefit and support of the profession, in the spirit of autonomy and self-regulation. the same aspect we also identified in the military sciences research. The analysis, promotion and encouragement of the use of principles of academic and research ethics will represent an optimal framework for developing research mechanisms that fall within the legal provisions in the field. Considering that, since 2018 the subject matter of Ethics and Academic Integrity has become compulsory in the academic curricula, the present article is addressed especially to those who have not benefited from the academic ethical education, and also to those who need a small code of ethics, to everyone who carries out scientific research activities in the military field. We intend to identify those discrepancies between practice and theory, in order to be able to propose a code of good practices in writing a scientific paper. Another objective is to raise the awareness of researchers at the academic and postgraduate level in order to comply with the legal provisions in the field of academic and ethics research.
