Shaping The Army For Future Wars
Warfare is evolving faster than warfighters while legacy structures, processes, and doctrines are at odds with emerging realities.
The Indian army has most commendably commenced a journey of transformation in true earnest. Yet, holistic transformation of the military is hindered by the primacy of bureaucracy, political interference and misplaced policies, with little understanding of the changing character of warfare.
Military transformation to be sustainable must address all three critical components; transformed politico-military culture, transformed defence planning process and transformed joint service capabilities.
