Summary: | Conclusions from past armed conflicts indicate that in basic military operations, especially
when the military objective is to capture or maintain a specific area, terrestrial troops
will play a decisive role, although their success will largely depend on the tasks carried
out by other types of armed forces. Individual types of armed forces operate in a different
environment and have different characteristics, but each of them performs a unique
function, which it implements to achieve a common goal. It is basically a means to achieve
the expected final state by achieving the synergy effect of all types of armed forces. The
evolutionary nature of the security environment puts significant demands on land forces
in terms of their ability to conduct operations in complex technical, meteorological and
combat conditions. In view of the above, modern terrestrial forces are distinguished by their
full motorisation, their ability to function in a network-centric environment and multi-
faceted cooperation with other types of armed forces. The article attempts to locate the
above attributes of land forces in the hypothetical operating environment of the future. |
