The Army finds itself in a strange in-between phase of warfare as it looks to meet and surpass its near-peer competitors while simultaneously emerging from two decades of counterinsurgency and counter terrorism warfare. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The evolving concept to become the doctrine of multi-domain operations is one way they\u2019re trying to get there. But leaders will need to work between the \u201ccompetition\u201d and \u201carmed conflict\u201d spaces to make it happen. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a recent post on Training and Doctrine Command\u2019s Mad Scientist blog<\/a>, Army veteran and former director of TRADOC\u2019s threats directorate Gary Phillips detailed four ways the Army can better prepare itself over the next decade:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1) Prepare Army leaders for an information environment where adversaries will use all of their capability to portray U.S. Army activities in way to diminish prestige and influence. <\/b>Leaders in this information environment must understand how to shape a narrative that overcomes adversary attempts to make what the service does look negative. Action versus reaction must become the norm for information engagement. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Army directly and repeatedly interacts with foreign populations. So the opportunity for engaging with positive and negative information is monumental. This can be especially critical during crises.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2)<\/b> Modernize the Army such that the \u201cInternet of Battle Things\u201d (IOBT) is secure and free from foreign software access points that could corrupt information used by these networked systems<\/b>. Capability and decision speed increase as the Army increasingly relies on devices that independently share information, harness artificial intelligence and act even semi-autonomously. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But vulnerability also grows as each network node provides a potential attack point. This is critical in a coalition environment where U.S. and allied unit interfaces may require \u201cmiddleware\u201d or hardware that is less protected. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Commercial solutions, while cost effective, also increase vulnerabilities. China\u2019s advocacy for certain standards for Internet of Things and the proliferation of Chinese-produced devices and electronic components in commercial equipment threaten the Army\u2019s IOBT security.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3) Increase Army engagement and connection to allies and potential allies. Army leaders and soldiers must build relationships with their allied counterparts.<\/b> These relationships include a fundamental understanding of the ally\u2019s culture and language. This understanding will be critical to the realization of successful information engagement. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

These connections are invaluable during a crisis, preventing an adversary from exploiting small disconnects and fractures in allied forces and leadership.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4) Recognize that countries will try to move combat \u201cupstream\u201d in the information space to avoid kinetic combat.<\/b> Develop leaders, build formations and advance capabilities that give Army units significance in the competition period beyond simply conducting training events with allies or potential allies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This must include the ability to rapidly shift to conflict with capacity to make the decisions unfavorable to an enemy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Currently, the Army is gearing up for large-scale ground combat operations. While necessary, this is not enough to set the Army for the 2030s. The Army\u2019s role in the competition period as deterrent, as a friend to our allies and as a representative of United States is crucial. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Winning a war without fighting is done during competition, and that is what the Army mission needs to include.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
