Abstract:
Intellect will determine the victors in future conflict. Our adversaries will be largely unrestricted in their tactics, operating in spite of legal constraint and largely immune from conventional reprisal. Strategic thought in China, for example, makes anything that provides state advantage fair game and grist to the military mill. Pre-emptive, counter-conflict activities to prevent the emergence of conditions requiring prolonged campaigning and unpredictable, high-impact and smart operations by the Land component will be both enabled and underpinned by intellectual leadership and its novel concepts.
Uncontrolled Keywords:
