War in Ukraine is showing US Army soldiers what they'll need to worry about in future fights, generals say
Story by cpanella@businessinsider.com (Chris Panella) • 4h


US Army generals are taking notes on the war in Ukraine and what's critical for future fighting.

Key takeaways include the impacts of drones, jamming, reconnaissance, and what's needed in close
 and far fights.

The implications of new capabilities are profound "for all forces," USARPAC's commander said.

 
The war in Ukraine, the largest land war in Europe since World War II, has been eye-opening for the US military, showing it what kind of threats could be in store in its next major conflict.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

I really hope this isn't the thinking of military planners.  The next war will be what it is, not what Ukraine is. :pondering:

Wars are becoming exercises in coordinated asymetrical warfare across many fronts - cyber, economic, agricultural, industrial, political, social, small unit tactics, and large unit tactics.

Dropping bombs is a great start, but a good Trojan Horse would be better - destroy the enemy from within.

Oceans are no longer the moats they used to be.
