Manoeuvre Warfare In The Modern Environment
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: Modern combat presents many challenges to combat arms, particularly in relation to manoeuvre warfare. Many theorists claim that the manoeuvre as a fighting approach is obsolete, suggesting that other approaches, such as attrition, are more relevant to the modern battlefield. To support the thesis, they argue that a manoeuvre is less relevant in conflicts like the war in Ukraine and Gaza. However, the Kharkiv and Kherson counteroffensives demonstrate the effectiveness of manoeuvre. Additionally, the war in Gaza shows that manoeuvre is feasible even in urban centres. These examples indicate that manoeuvre warfare, in its revised form, remains relevant in contemporary conflicts.
