Heute erscheint mein Buch 'Die Rückkehr des Krieges' bei @quadrigaverlag. Es dient als Handbuch für politische Entscheidungsträger und die breite Öffentlichkeit, um ein tieferes Verständnis von Krieg und moderner Kriegsführung zu vermitteln. Neben Analysen enthält das Werk

"The Russian military will emerge from its invasion with extensive experience and a distinct vision of the future of combat, and it is sharing its experience with China, Iran, and North Korea." https://t.co/vzi8bHYK5q h/t @MassDara

I agree. I think Russia is approaching an inflection point in the coming months about whether to continue the war. In order to capture all of the Donetsk region (which is of questionable actual strategic value for Russia), Moscow may need to conduct another mobilization or

In dieser Podcast-Episode spreche ich darüber, warum so viele Menschen in Europa noch immer in einer Friedensillusion leben.

Tomahawks for #Ukraine? #Trump wants to hand over the war to the Europeans. My 🎙️ #podcast, #TheGlobalAgora with @HoansSolo: ▶️ #Apple https://t.co/lZpBrTmRus ▶️ #Spotify https://t.co/ClTayNTQGP #Putinswar #Russia

~60% of deep strikes on Russian territory are carried out by Ukrainian Fire Point FP-1 drones (range ≈1,500 km, cost ≈$55,000 each, now churned out >100/day.) Ukraine also uses Lyutyi (range 2,000 km) Reports say FP-5 “Flamingo” cruise missiles have begun to be used, range

A key question going into winter is how focused and intense Russia’s strike campaign will be — against Ukraine’s critical infrastructure, defense industry, military sites, and civilians — and how well Ukraine can defend against it. https://t.co/MoLyr3Q6cx via @NYTimes

Thanks for reading! I should add that in the book I primarily discuss U.S. ideas of rapid, decisive warfare rooted in systems thinking. While U.S. doctrine acknowledges that a peer conflict could become a long, drawn-out affair and does not explicitly talk about victory against

Im Übrigen kann ich mich noch sehr genau erinnern, wie ich diese Ausgabe der @kleinezeitung im Juni 1991 – kurz vor dem Ausbruch des Zehntagekriegs in Slowenien – neben meinem Vater sitzend las. Für uns Buben im Dorf war das der Sommer des „Panzer-Schauen-Gehens“.

Ich war gestern zu Gast in meiner quasi journalistischen Heimat, der Kleinen Zeitung in 🇦🇹, und durfte mit den Leserinnen und Lesern meiner Kolumne diskutieren.

Interesting piece by @RyanO_ChosenCoy 👇

‘Patriots were previously protected by other systems such as Europe’s Iris-T and medium-range batteries. Now, with some of those assets damaged or redeployed, “the Patriots have to cover themselves” while engaging incoming Russian missile threats in some cases, said one person

Patriot interception rates have dropped as Russian Iskander-M missiles show upgrades—veering off expected paths in their terminal phase.

If Montcalm had won but still been killed in battle, leaving the Marquis de Vaudreuil-Cavagnal in charge of defending New France, then perhaps…

Ukraine’s air defence forces say that to be effective, they must launch three interceptors for each Shahed drone, which at current attack levels amounts to about 2,500 interceptors per day.

Confirmed. Operators of the FPV Unmanned Systems Forces destroyed a russian Mi-8 helicopter (estimated value $6 million). In the area of Kotliarivka, operators of the 59th Separate Assault Brigade’s “Steppe Predators” Unmanned Systems destroyed a Mi-8 transport and combat

Meine neue Kolumne: 👇

Europa darf auf russische Aggression nicht nur mit Zurückhaltung reagieren. Die Lehre von 1938 zeigt: Wer nicht früh entschlossen gegen einen Aggressor vorgeht, zahlt später einen viel höheren Preis. Nicht weil wir am Beginn eines Weltkrieges stehen, sondern weil jedes Zögern
