**Abstract**

The chapter discussed and considered the factors that influence the path planning for military purposed autonomous vehicles. The planning of movement (path planning) for autonomous vehicles is complex process influenced by many categories of factors. The complexity of autonomous vehicles path planning is dramatically increasing in military operational environment when the confrontation with enemy is expected. From operational point of view, it is necessary to considered in which military domain the autonomous vehicles will operate, for example, in Land domain, Air domain or Sea domain. From tactical point of view, there will be group of common factors for each domains and group of different factors for specific domain. As much as possible factors which will be included in consideration of path planning as the part of mathematical algorithms will increase the prerequisite for successful fulfilling of assigned tasks and missions.

**Keywords:** path planning, military factors, domains, operation environment
