[Modern War Institute, 18.02.2025, Bryan J. Bonnema, Moises Jimenez]<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As reconnaissance UAS somewhat dissolved the fog of war, kill chains shortened and strike UAS now pose a constant danger in the Russian-Ukrainian war, offensive operations are likely to come at a higher cost. This report from West Point analyses the causes for why the 2023 Ukrainian counteroffensive failed. It highlights how the offensive-defensive balance has shifted towards defence and the difficulty this creates for liberating occupied territory. The comprehensive report further notes how crucial initiative and calculated risk-taking are on the tactical level. However, it also cautions that while low-level initiative should be welcomed, it is nevertheless crucial to effectively coordinate those actions for full effect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the same time, it notes how bureaucratic processes slow down the development and implementation of the needed adaptation to the situation on the ground. Whilst the report was written with a focus on the U.S. Armed Forces, any large organization including the Swiss Armed Forces are challenged by the slower processes and inefficiencies resulting out of bureaucratic procedures. The author Vasquez suggests that through integrating the services of commercial entities, military processes can become more dynamic and hence more effective. Moreover, the knowledge and experience of veterans of active wars (such as the Russian-Ukrainian war), could be employed to improve military training, processes and structures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Link: https:\/\/warontherocks.com\/2025\/02\/its-time-to-overhaul-information-transfer-in-army-training\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n [Air and Space Power Centre, September 2024, Ryan Hodson]<\/p>\n\n\n\n In this report of the Australian Air Force, Hodson makes several observations on how drones will affect the aerial domain. He states how UAS (Unmanned Aerial Systems) have moved beyond simply being a carrier for grenades and supplies and are increasingly becoming ammunition themselves. Moreover, he mentions that because of the UAS\u2019 speed, defenders against a drone attack only have minutes from launch until a potential impact. The time between sensors noticing the drone\u2019s launch and communicating this to effectors who then neutralise it, must therefore be possible within only a few minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Link: https:\/\/airpower.airforce.gov.au\/blog\/weaponisation-toys-and-implications-air-force<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n [PRISM, June 2024, National Defense University]<\/p>\n\n\n\n This issue of the U.S.-American PRISM journal focuses on strategic questions such as how the future strategic environment might look like and which role the cyber and space domains will play in it, as well as how Special Forces can help to achieve deterrence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Link: https:\/\/ndupress.ndu.edu\/PRISM\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n Le \u00ab Update Conduite \u00bb est une rubrique r\u00e9currente de la newsletter Leader’s Digest<\/a>.
