- W233081640 abstract "THE ARMY'S NEXT keystone doctrinal instrument Field Manual (FMS 100-5, Operations, must explain that the nature of modern warfighting, as it is likely to occur over the next five to six years, will differ substantially from that of two hundred years ago. Previous versions of FM 140-5 discussed the dynamic nature of warfare a subject all too often omitted from documents of its type) as a product of the clash between opposing wills and the influence of the famed Clausewitzian imponderables-danger, fog, friction, chance and uncertainty. However, these versions failed to mention any circumstances or conditions likely to figure significantly in near-term war-fighting, particularly within the moral domain. This is a serious doctrinal issue, especially since the conditions of warfare from 2000 to 2010 may confront the Army with greater challenges than it has faced even in the recent past. This article discusses those challenges and concludes that, to meet them, the Army must begin now to develop leaders with higher levels of maturity and experience and units with greater cohesion and flexibility. It will not be enough for doctrine to refer to modem conflict. The nature of warfare defines elements that endure over time, and modern denotes a very broad and often ill-defined period of warfare that dates back to the Napoleonic era. The use of such terms leaves the impression that the tactics, techniques and procedures that served Napoleon's Imperial Guard or the World War I doughboy will work equally well for the proto-Force XXI warrior. In fact, nothing could be further from the truth. Although the Advanced Warfighting Experiments continue to yield important lessons, they have already taught the Army that information technology will introduce new and significant challenges to tomorrow's soldiers and leaders. Many of these challenges will emerge within the next five or six years, the period governed by the new version of FM 100-5, and decisively shape the character of contemporary warfighting: FM 100-S requires, therefore, a description of that character and of the specific aspects of contemporary warfighting likely to affect the Army's soldiers, leaders and units in the near-term. In support of this recommendation, we suggest that emerging technological capabilities of the 21st century and the operational concepts that employ them will give rise to four specific warfighting challenges: * Increased complexity; * Unparalleled speed and unrelenting tempo; * Heightened physical and psychological Isolation; and * Unprecedented lethality. Tomorrow's Warfighting Challenges Increased complexity. The recent institutionalization of new warfighting dimensions such as information, space and the electromagnetic spectrum will dramatically increase contemporary battlefield complexity by introducing a greater number of independent and dependent variables into mission planning and execution.1 Rapid, full-dimensional, highly integrated and synchronized future operations will generate a larger number of moving parts functioning at higher speeds and force even junior leaders to cope with increasing complexity. In addition, in the near-term dynamic geopolitical environment, leaders will likely encounter complex military-- political problems requiring solutions outside the scope of established policies and rules of engagement. Tomorrow's leaders will probably find that centralized management will fail because the challenges of mastering the command and control (C^sup 2^) process will overcome the human ability to concentrate on achieving the end result.2 Historically, improvements in command tools have resulted in increased battlefield complexity; the dynamics of warfare tend to push the number of moving parts to the limits Of C^sup 2^. Information technologies (IT) will both enhance the capabilities of commanders to control their forces and tempt them to increase the number of elements requiring that control. …" @default.
