This condensed visualization depicts a 'Multi-Domain Battle space" that provides a flexible means to present multiple dilemmas to an enemy and create temporary windows of localized control to seize, retain and exploit the initiative.
No, that's the Russian way of doing things. The US multi-domain operations is MUCH different. It uses highly coordinated and reactive movement and denial to overwhelm the enemy. If you can set conditions where you (with less man power and material) can out target, out shoot, and out maneuver your enemy you can do a lot with very little.
the difference is that no one piece of the killchain is crucial. The pieces are versatile, and kill chains can be dynamically generated in real time without needing to be constructed and implemented at C2 levels. Joe Snuffy can target and sergeant salty can launch the missile to complete the kill from the comfort of his M1127 while sipping watered down coffee.
It seems odd that we had to rediscover that you can improvise solutions in war if the circumstances of a particular unique scenario allow for a plan that would ordinarily not work if the enemy had a different deployment. Then again, it's 2022 and the Russians seem to have not rediscovered this ancient technology yet, so I guess it really was lost.
@@DancerVeiledits not necessarily new just more interchangable. Like, it uaed to be for forward observation/targeting of artillery systems you needed a dedicated FO soldier, plane, or drone. Maybe coordinates from a satellite prepared by someone if you felt spicy. Now, it's possible for any datalink equipped plane to send opportunistic firemission targets to artillery batteries, groundbased air defenses to spot for a missile launch from a fighter, and suchforth.
I wish there was a symbol list with descriptions. Not all of us have learned the whole symbolic alphabet. Can only follow infantry, artillery, mortar, armor, anti-aircraft defense, wing, EW, SOF, and reconnaissance. The other symbosl just next to the friendly SOF I dont know: 1. The enemy square with the shortest line 2. The half circle with the lightning bolt 3. The 'gun' on two wheels (motorized?)
The gun on two wheels is a surface to surface missile battery. It mentions it at 3:50. I am unsure what those other symbols are but I think the half circle with the lightning bolt is a sensor as mentioned a little after 3:50.
artillery can't take out long range air defense which means air surgical to strategic assets will fail thus reducing the lethality of the offensive force due to downed fighter jets!
Yes, it could. The Taliban didn't score a military victory over Western forces. Western forces just got bored of Afghanistan and left the country, that's when the Taliban walked back in. War is not a mean by itself, but the enforcement of a will through force. The force was there, the will wasn't.
