Summary/Abstract: Within history, armed clashes have dramatically affected the urban localities,where there were strategic objectives, but also a significant population. Nowadays, the city hasbecome a target by attacks which destroy the urban area and irreversibly affect the population.City’s resistance is in great difficulty, involving within defensive actions not only its own community,but also the international organizations whose mission is to maintain peace.In present days, the “smart city” term generates ample debates and polemics. The defense of intelligent cities should be positioned into an offensive area, based on the configuration of this new type of city.Defense actions in the smart city have to respect the particularities of the battle within urban terrain, analyzing the dimensions of the kinetic territory and taking into consideration the intensity of the aerial actions, targeting not only the actual attack, but also collecting data with drones. In this context, synergy is the essential condition for success in the civil-military planning process of a smart city.
