On the latest episode of podcast Revolution in Military Affairs, Tim Sweijs, Research Director at The Hague Centre for Strategic Studies (HCSS), joins host Amos Fox to explore how military innovation is reshaping the character of modern warfare. What insights can we distil from contemporary conflicts for future wars? How do technologies such as drones, precision strike systems, and networked information environments change the way wars are fought and won?
Looking in particular at the ongoing war in Ukraine following Russia’s 2022 invasion, Sweijs and Fox reflect on what contemporary battlefields may reveal on the Future of Warfare. Against this backdrop, the episode asks a central question for defence planners and military professionals alike: which lessons from today’s conflicts are likely to define the wars of tomorrow, and which risk being misinterpreted if taken out of context?
