From the Ready to the Future Force: Key Warfighting Capabilities for the New Strategic Environment
10/05/2024
By Robbin Laird
The strategic environment has clearly changed and the level of real world conflict has escalated, whether in terms of major hot wars – in the Middle East and in Europe – or in terms of active gray zone conflicts.
The ready force needs to deal with this real world rather than than just preparing for a future war. The DSR has outlined the future force for the future war; the current ADF needs to deal with the world we have.
The prospect of armed conflict in the first island chain, already underway in the gray zone between China and the Philippines, and the prospect of PRC actions against a sovereign free nation in Taiwan has been constantly threatened by the current leader of China.
How do you respond to the here and now but do so in a way that puts you on the trajectory which the DSR has mandated?
