A new four-part series from This Is Not A Drill… Warfare is
evolving faster than ever in this dangerous world. Gavin Esler
explores a new generation of weapons and how they’ll fight – or
prevent – the next wars. This time: In an age of brutal
medium-sized regional conflicts, nuclear deterrence is suddenly
less important – and missiles are back. From massively
destructive hypersonic weapons to smart cruise-drone hybrids to
networked “loitering munitions”, they’re becoming faster, more
accurate, and more capable of inflicting atrocities on civilians in
indiscriminate hands. And as the Iran and Ukraine Wars prove,
they’re far from a guarantee of victory. Gavin Esler talks
to: • Dr Sidharth Kaushal, senior research fellow in the
Military Sciences programme at the Royal United Services Institute
(RUSI) • Peter Apps, global defense columnist for
Reuters, British Army reservist and author of The Next World War Dr
Jessica Dorsey, assistant Professor of International Law and
co-director of Realities of Algorithmic Warfare at Utrecht
University. Buy books through our affiliate bookshop and
