The Horizon Audiofiles - Ep 023 - Digging Into The Future

This Podcast critically examines the Western military's reliance
on manoeuvrist warfare as defined by NATO, positing that this
approach may prove myopic in the context of potentially unlimited
warfare. It argues that expecting a single set of forces to
achieve decisive results against a resilient adversary swiftly is
a high-risk strategy. Furthermore, an excessive focus on the
manoeuvrist approach may disconnect military efforts from their
fundamental political objectives, leading to tactical and
operational disorientation and forfeiture of the strategic
initiative. In response, the paper advocates for a recalibration
of strategy towards attriting the adversarial Centre of Gravity
instead of expecting definitive successes from quick and clean
land operations. This approach requires Western forces to accept
the dire consequences of strategic attrition and embrace
prolonged and symmetric warfare strategies to secure favourable
outcomes.
