Advanced Weaponry and Russian Military Art of War
Abstract
Russian General Staff Chief Valery Gerasimov has directed that the Academy of Military Science provide insight into new forms and methods of warfare, including in military art. In its simplest form, Russian military art is the development of recommendations for the application of military and nonmilitary actions. Military art changes in accordance with contemporary developments. Proof of this statement lies in the various and unexpected ways that Russian forces can now disorganize an opponents command and control systems, are developing strategic aerospace axes for deep operations, are considering new forms of maneuver and geophysical weaponry, and are developing new applications of electronic warfare and military stratagems. In addition, Russian military art avoids stereotyping; that is, formal concepts such as airland battle or multi-domain operations (MDO), which along with several other items has serious implications for commanders of MDO to take into consideration.
