The Future of Warfare: Preparing U.S. Military Forces for Competition and Contestation | GSF 2024

Join the CSIS International Security Program for the 2024 Global Security Forum on Wednesday, April 24, 2024. As CSIS's flagship annual security conference, the Forum convenes leaders from the defense and national security communities to discuss the top security challenges facing the country and the world. This year's conference will feature keynote discussions with General Charles Q. Brown, Jr., Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and the Honorable Avril Haines, Director of National Intelligence.
The theme of the 2024 Global Security Forum is "Gathering Strength in a Gathering Storm." Speakers will address how the United States can muster its strengths to counter multiple global challenges, posture for uncertainty, and prepare U.S. forces to deter and defeat aggression.
This year's Forum will also feature conversations with senior leaders from the government, military, private sector, and think tank community.
The conference will be held at CSIS headquarters and virtually. Further details on the schedule, participants, and registration will be updated below in the leadup to the Forum in April.
This event is made possible by the generous support of Leonardo DRS.

That said, I want to watch a bit less of the arm chair generals and a bit more of the actual generals. Also, you think about things differently if you have no stakes in what you're thinking about. Actual stakeholders stand to gain a lot by taking the time to see what the arm chair generals think. And very often (very oddly!), wrong ideas can inspire good ideas.

We can make all these improvements, but if we don’t have military leaders who can see 6 inches in front of their faces, we end up exactly where we are. But it’s not fair to blame them, they’re a function of the cronyism, bureaucratic malfeasance, group think and political corruption. They don’t offer new insights, they mold their views to the blob. They’ve done well to maximize their wealth and benefits while eliminating their accountability. The disasters of Ukraine, the Afghanistan pull out, Syria, the Houthis, the embarrassment in the Sahel - no one has been fired, demoted, apologized, taken responsibility, nothing. Only the NCO’s and low ranking officers are held accountable.

Good discussion, Coming from the viewpoint of a retired paratrooper, I'd say - "whoa nellie". While we need "system level" integration, we also need paratroopers, marines, soldiers, etc to master analog warfare. Any common tech system just means new common vulnerabilities for all branches and all platforms. Survival skills. Hand fighting. Small unit tactics. Only anlaog radio systems. Improvised devices / traps. Use and repair of civilian vehicles. weaponry, etc. etc. These are what warfighters need. "Tablet" warfighting ain't gonna cut it. China already has robot AI dogs equipped with small arms. There's a technological way to defeat them, but you'd probably need to be close with a good RF signal. Similarly, the more we go down the path of relying on technology only, the more vulnerable we become.

Thank You, sirs. Remarks (imho, with all the respect): 1. The more one hides the tactical component, the harder it becomes to reassure neutral sides and civilians in your intentions, which can severely influence one's further operative capabilities. Thus perfectly unexpected attacks may apper as unwanted, as the totally expected one. 2. Indeed, the space race makes economies alive and thriving. However, there's no viable alternative to strategic diplomatic solutions assuring the Solar System's future, since nobody can deny external force risks and natural catastrophic tendencies. 3. To rephrase the old soldier's proverb: wars are something, and maneuvers are everything. 4. Platform and system level integration chains bring to end-users (commanders, in particular), along with the advantages mentioned, both the flexibility challenge, neural overload and rapid burnout dangers. 5. AI is not a panacea. It is a form of life. And for us, it's just the way to advance our potential, and transform the existential philosophy, including its military part. 6. Sure, everyone and everything is observable at some level and to some degree. The one denying this common sense may be instantly doomed. But then, the real struggle comes from the depth of soldiers' hearts and minds. How to camouflage the inner content of souls, and would that be worth the deal? Or should it bring another case of the Pyrrhic gains? Thank you for your attention.

This selection of high ranking military officers looks like a selection world renowned and very admirable surgeons. If you ask such a surgeon what to do in your case of ailment all they know is to discuss different types of surgeries. The pros and cons. They do not know how to find, a cure outside of surgery.

The only fear I have is domestic! I fear this country. I fear American institutions. There has never been a crisis that our government and our institutions didn't make worse for the citizens! Whatever Russia does will be nothing compared to what our government and institutions do to us. I'm afraid of our domestic institutions and government.

Well, I think american insitutions are really important, and I say that as somebody from Austria. I like the CDC, the Fed, the FDA, FBI I could go on... You guys are THE democracy, please keep it that way.

The US began covert political ops in UKR in 2008. Follow this: Yesterday UKR consular offices suspended services to all expats of military age. This is done to pressure these men to return to the homeland and fill “ losses to the military incurred BEFORE and since the Russian invasion…” (emphasis mine). “BEFORE”.? “BEFORE”? This references losses incurred when the UKR government shelled and assaulted villages and civilians in the Donetsk. Just for fun: does any of that $60Billion include monies for democratic elections that Zelenskyj has cancelled???

@khersonskiyarbuzkhersonski2460 I'm not sure I understand. I am interested in understanding what you are trying to articulate. Give me some more details please. So keep the war going is the plan. Drain American resources and pressure the world until it breaks? Sounds like a great idea to entrench war and create a never-ending blood feud between Russians. They keep fighting, and we keep losing the things we worked for? The wealthiest Americans keep getting richer and more powerful while the middle class is suffering. The real talent in America is forced to serve the people who have not invested in themselves and the minorities? How the hell does that make any sense? It's like putting the horse behind the cart! This is a terrible idea! It just keeps getting worse.

I like we focusing on building smaller ships, these ships can be supported by lzrger ships for bluewater, work on disributed neworks as a an effective larger ship, they are also more immune to long range missile attacks and can even decoy/tank/electronic counter measures. Larger ships are being effectively targeted by mini platforms sea drones and missiles so they looking more and more like juicy targets.

@NeostormXLMAX your IQ is very low. First of all. They're two different leagues. U.S. doesn't benefit from fighting the Houthis. If the U.S was to fight directly, you would call us the bad guy.

Churchill was an ethically bankrupt man (letting the Germans bomb Coventry without warning the residents springs to mind) and to hear Seth lionizing him is rather disgusting.

[@ronaldreeves421]

As far as cost effective weapons to counter dronex missiles, i would like to prolose we layer our air defenses with cheaper even propeller aircraft layer. These are order of magnitude cheaper, scalable and very effective against slower drones. These can be manned but evolving into ai. Drone tech is in its infancy, with all the old ecm countermeasures we employed on planes are going to be miniaturzed and mass produced. Drone/missile/torpedo based sub carriers for air and undersea can be very effective as they can hide and are more immune to long range missile attacks,

We can share between agency information, but the decision process sucks. Look at North Korea, Iran, Syria, Lebanon, and Afghanistan, Russia, Ukraine, Gaza. All predictable. 20 years, the problem has grown, decisions have not been made, and issues become state-sponsored terror.

Украина платит цену за свой идиотизм. Не Иран, не Сирия, не Ливан, не Россия, не Газа не виноваты в том что они хотят быть независимыми и не становится колонией США.
