The document summarizes key ideas from Liddell Hart's book on military strategy. It discusses Hart's view that indirect approaches are generally more effective than direct attacks. Specifically, it notes that Hart believed strategies should advance along the line of least expectation against the least resistance, and that the equilibrium of an enemy must be upset before a main attack can succeed. The document also discusses applying indirect strategy concepts to business, suggesting competing on alternative dimensions like price or partnerships rather than direct competition on features.

This document discusses the nature of war and conflict from theoretical perspectives. It examines Clausewitz's theory that war is an extension of politics and is influenced by the interaction between passion, chance and reason. The document also looks at Jomini's approach to understanding war through universal principles and strategies to achieve victory. Finally, it explores different approaches to analyzing and understanding conflict, including examining the sources of discontent, phases of escalation, and how conflicts can transform into more constructive relations or end in violence.
This document provides an overview of key strategic thinkers and their contributions to strategic thought, including:
1. Kautilya and Sun Tzu emphasized indirect and deceptive approaches to warfare, exploiting weaknesses and achieving victory with minimal engagement.
2. Machiavelli stressed the importance of strong military forces under the ruler's control and the use of deception. He also saw military preparedness as important for defense and stability.
3. Jomini focused on concentrating forces at decisive points and maneuvering to engage enemy fractions.
4. Clausewitz viewed war as continuation of policy and emphasized popular support for war as well as concentrating maximum forces at decisive engagements. Technological aspects of war were not his primary

PRIVATE MILITARY CONTRACTORS, WAR CRIMES AND INTERNATIONAL HUMANITARIAN LAWOnyinye Chime
The end of the Cold War witnessed the growth and spread of legally established private military contractors (PMCs) playing largely undefined roles in wars, international security and post-conflict reconstruction. The operations of PMCs in Iraq and Afghanistan in the 21st century have been marked by gross human rights abuses and poor treatment and torture of prisoners of war (POWs). Indeed, PMCs are likely to step outside their contractual obligations and commit criminal acts. This article adds to the literature on the subject by arguing that the elusiveness of PMCs’ individual or corporate responsibility for war crimes presents one of the greatest challenges for international humanitarian law (IHL). This presents a dilemma for IHL, which seeks to address individual offences. The situation becomes even more complicated when non-governmental organisations (NGOs) and multinational corporations (MNCs) are involved in the use of PMCs.

Salah satu tujuan dari bab ini adalah untuk menyoroti beberapa kesamaan utama dan perbedaan antara dua kasus dari perspektif manajemen konflik internasional. Artinya, meskipun kedua dinamika konflik internal sebelumnya yang sangat kompleks pada Yugoslavia dan Irak, analisis memberikan prioritas kepada pertanyaan: Apa yang dilakukan komunitas internasional dalam dua kasus tesebut dan sejauh manakah kebijakan manajemen konflik yang serupa diterapkan atau setidaknya mengindikasikan filosofi dasar yang sama?
Studi perdamaian dalam hal ini telah melalui jalan yang panjang dan bidang ini menawarkan dua sudut pandang yang berbeda: (1) apakah telah mencapai perdamaian dan bagaimana; dan, jika tidak, mengapa? dan (2) apa yang bisa dipelajari tentang kasus Irak dengan mempelajari kasus Balkan, dan sebaliknya, dan pola umum apa yang berulang meskipun negara, masalah dan budaya mereka sangat berbeda?
Tujuan lain, yang telah dikatakan dalam judul bab ini, adalah usntuk menunjukkan bagaimana kedua kasus menampilkan karakteristik yang lebih menunjukkan kepada urusan dari manajemen konflik. Ini berarti bahwa kasus penting dari kesempatan yang telah hilang untuk mengupayakan perdamaian sejati yang sedang disorot.
The document provides a historical analysis of the military in Nigeria, outlining several key points:
1. The Nigerian military originated as a small colonial constabulary force and was influenced by its colonial origins, weakening its professionalism.
2. The military ruled Nigeria for 29 of its first 43 years of independence and contributed significantly to damage of the state through corruption and centralization of power.
3. The military's intervention in politics in 1966 was initially welcomed but it exacerbated ethnic divisions and undermined its legitimacy.
4. The civil war strengthened the military's legitimacy and influence but the post-war government failed to maximize this opportunity, politicizing the armed forces and weakening accountability

The Internet of Military Things: There Will Be CyberwarRichard Stiennon
Richard Stiennon discusses the evolution of network-centric warfare and how the military's overreliance on networked technology without proper security precautions has increased vulnerabilities. He outlines several past security failures in the military's use of IT and argues we could see a "cyber pearl harbor" if an adversary is able to gain information dominance by hacking networks and systems to disrupt communications and sensor grids during a future conflict. Stiennon warns that vulnerabilities in platforms like the F-35 could allow an enemy to subvert mission tasking and potentially achieve military defeat through cyber attacks.
ArtOS is an artillery fire control system that optimizes the performance of artillery batteries through communication, reconnaissance data gathering, ammunition tracking, and resupply ordering. It allows a typical artillery strike to be performed in 5 steps in around 1 minute by integrating data between fire direction centers, firing sections, and gunlayers. Key advantages include compatibility with different weapon types and sensors, encrypted data transmission, automatic logging, and integration with complementary systems like MilStaff for operations planning and MilChat for mobile communications.
The Russian Approach to Information WarfareJeffrey Malone
This is a modified version of a lecture from the unit that I teach (ZEIT 8115 - Information Operations) in the Masters of System Engineering Course at the School of Engineering and IT, Australian Defence Force Academy (UNSW). I have posted this as - arising out of unfolding events in Ukraine - this topic is of broader interest.
This document discusses military radar systems. It describes three main types of radar used in military systems: land-based air defense radar, spaceborne radar systems, and airborne surveillance radar. It provides details on the Space Tracking and Surveillance System (STSS), a space-based system developed by the Missile Defense Agency to identify and track ballistic missiles. The STSS uses sensors on two satellites to detect visible and infrared light to track objects in space and provide data to missile defense systems. Military radar continues to evolve to identify more targets in different environments and conditions to support military operations.
You can understand what is a ballistic missile, how important it is for a country and importance of ballistic missile defence system. It also describes where India stands in BMDS evolution.
The document discusses the Future Combat System (FCS) program, which aims to modernize the US Army through networked combat and logistics systems. It will integrate unmanned aerial vehicles, unmanned ground vehicles, the Aegis Combat System for naval vessels, the Multifunctional Utility/Logistics and Equipment vehicle, and the Future Force Warrior program to equip soldiers. All of these systems form a networked family of advanced weapons and sensors to support transformational combat brigades.
All the World's a Stage (Unless you are in the Military)Andy Fawkes
Presented at the RAeS "Simulation Based Training: The Key to Military Operational Capability" Conference, London 22 November 2016 - If military mission training, planning, preparation, command and control, and after action analysis/debriefing were life then there would not be one world or “stage” but many. Military personnel are typically required to carry out their activities singularly and together on a number of different training, simulation and C4ISTAR systems that may work together but have different human interfaces, processes, and digital content that may not be easily shared across systems. This puts additional workloads on the personnel and runs the risk of confusion and reduced operational agility. What if there was only one world or “stage” to support the complete mission cycle? This talk will discuss the challenges in achieving one “stage” when most if not all simulation/C4ISTAR component elements are procured and operated by different teams and sourced from different companies. However, if the organisational and technological challenges can be overcome, might there be additional operational benefits going forward?
From SIMNET to the Metaverse - Why is it taking so long?Andy Fawkes
Presented at IT2EC Rotterdam - 25 April 2023 - In 1978, US Air Force Captain Jack Thorpe proposed a network of simulators for combat planning and execution, and this concept was later developed by DARPA in the 1980s as SIMNET (SIMulator NETworking). SIMNET eventually included 260 simulators at 11 sites in the USA and Europe including tank and aircraft simulators, and connected to a real warship and command centres in the early 1990s. Today, there is renewed interest in creating multi-domain simulation capabilities, but it is unclear if any nation has succeeded in building a persistent system similar to SIMNET that integrates live, virtual, and constructive simulations across the whole defence enterprise. The trend towards the "metaverse" may offer an opportunity for the defence sector to establish an enterprise-wide simulation infrastructure that exploits the wider trends in the metaverse and computing. This presentation examines past initiatives to build multi-domain simulation capabilities and consider the issues that may have hindered progress, and then offer a vision for the defence sector to fully realize Thorpe's 45-year-old idea through an integrated enterprise approach to networked simulation in support of all defence activities.
1) Smart munitions have been developed since the 1930s but few nations have mastered the technology due to challenges in reliability, effectiveness against countermeasures, and complexity of operation and maintenance.
2) Gun-launched smart munitions face even greater challenges as they must withstand extreme acceleration forces from being fired from artillery or tank guns. Miniaturizing guidance systems to fit smaller calibers adds to the difficulty.
3) The true effectiveness of smart munitions is difficult to determine due to inconsistent data and performance can be reduced by decoys or countermeasures like radar jamming. Large stockpiles are needed to assure target destruction as countermeasures improve.
War has historically driven scientific and technological progress by creating needs that stimulate innovation. Throughout history, wars have prompted advances in areas such as chemistry through the development of explosives, astronomy through improvements to navigation, and metallurgy through advances in weapon manufacturing. Even today, wars continue to spur new technologies across many fields as militaries pursue superior weapons, equipment, and strategies. Future armament projects now seek innovations like powerful electromagnetic guns, high energy lasers, and cavitation torpedoes, though it is hoped that such technologies will ultimately be applied to peaceful ends.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...indexPub
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.

Przedstawiona tam propozycja miała być odpowiedzią na coraz szersze zapotrzebowanie na wyposażenie żołnierza w ekwipunek zapewniający mu komfort, rozumiany jako zapewnienie jak najlepszych warunków do wykonywania zadań. Dlatego też w założeniach tej koncepcji, żołnierz został wyposażony w elektrycznie podgrzewany kombinezon, w którym temperatura była regulowana w zależności od warunków klimatycznych. Kombinezon miał być wykonany z oddychającego materiału, chroniącego przed oddziaływaniem otoczenia, zarówno klimatu, jak również broni masowego rażenia. W modelu użyto także po raz pierwszy odpowiednika (pierwowzoru) kamizelki taktycznej, która zastąpiła pas i szelki na plecak. Stopy miały być chronione przez buty odporne na wybuch miny przeciwpiechotnej. Uzbrojenie stanowić miały: automatyczny karabinek z granatnikiem i podwójna wyrzutnia małych pocisków rakietowych umocowana na plecaku. Hełm żołnierza miał być wyposażony w dalmierz laserowy, wzmacniacz obrazu, kamerę i wyświetlacz.
