    If they properly embraced maneuver warfare they would have a stronger contingent of artillery and armor. Demonstrated preference.

    • The fact that you're still clinging to organic artillery and armor in an age of advanced C4ISR and PGM airstrikes is just another sign of how slow the Army is to adapt. You can maneuver a hell of a lot more effectively if you're light.
      I'm sorry, I can't hear you over the sound of how awesome I am.

      • Such warfare is probably obsolete at the moment. A state just needs a nuclear deterrent and then a strong police/counter-insurgency force.
        To us, it is the BEAST.

        • True, but there's always the chance you might decide to topple a non-nuclear state, probably for dumb reasons.

            • The fact that he used C4ISR unironically is pretty funny.
              If there is no sound in space, how come you can hear the lasers?

              • The US military uses C4ISR unironically all the time.
