Description
The ubiquity of information and the pace of technological change is transforming the character of warfare. Commercial technologies have disrupted the economics and character of warfare. They are cheaper, faster, lighter, smaller and stealthier. The domains of information, cyberspace and space have joined the conventional warfighting domains of land, sea and air. Although the doctrine for land operations is relatively mature, the doctrine for information, cyberspace and space is in a nascent stage. Information, cyber and space will become both a precursor to and integral part of armed combat in the land, maritime and air domains. Integrating all five Operational Domains: Space, Cyber, Maritime, Air and Land will change the way we operate, fight and develop capability. How the Indian armed forces’ military operations, especially the army, are being integrated with these new domains will be critical to its success in operations. This book takes a holistic look at Information, Cyber and Space Domain and their Application in Future Land Warfare.
