‘Extremely Lethal and Fast’ Army Chief Warns Future War with Russia / China
It is a chilling vision of war – and one unlike any other ever fought.
“We were perhaps a hairs breath away from a complete nuclear war with Russia and maybe still are.”
US military bosses have revealed their predictions for a major conflict, and say war between nation states at some point in the future ‘is almost guaranteed’.
ARMY CHIEF: FUTURE WAR IS ‘ALMOST GUARANTEED’
Leaders say warfare in the coming decades will be fundamentally different from the past 25 years.
To envision the wars of the future, first remember those of the distant past, with their soul-numbing artillery barrages and unstinting waves of conventional enemy forces. Then speed up that mental newsreel and imagine a ground war accelerated by artificial intelligence and precision munitions, nested in a larger strategic sphere where everything is moving at Internet velocity.
That’s the picture that Army leaders are working from as they try to prepare their force to deter and defeat America’s enemies over the next few decades. More at source: http://www.defenseone.com/threats/2016/10/future-army/132105/
Russia has not been quite either.
