UK "Future Army"

The document in full:

adr010310-futuresoldierguide_25nov.pdf (mod.uk)

Page 5: "We can no longer guarantee technical superiority on the battlefield. In the future it will become increasingly hard to move and hide as enemy sensors and surveillance systems become more powerful and their weapons will have the ability to kill with greater range and accuracy. Adversaries will continue to attempt to bypass our strengths through increasingly sophisticated and diverse methods outside of conventional armed conflict."

Page 14: Shift from Close to Deep Battle "This will include the ability to attack at ranges of up to 499Km from 2024" [so perhaps less reliance on aircraft within this range band]

JHC pages 96-99:
