David Petraeus warns Ukraine drone combat renders conventional warfare obsolete
The former CIA director says armed forces have just one year to restructure their operations or face being fundamentally outmatched.
Former CIA Director David Petraeus has declared that conventional manoeuvre tactics are now obsolete due to the impact of drone combat in Ukraine.
The prominent American general stressed the immediate need for a strategic shift, noting that military organizations do not have five years to adjust to these modern battlefield developments.
Instead, Petraeus cautioned that global armed forces must undergo a complete structural overhaul within the next twelve months. He warned that any military failing to meet this rapid timeline faces the imminent threat of being severely left behind in future engagements.
