I'd like to share some thoughts from my recent @CNASdc #nextNDS paper on "Moving Beyond A2/AD," or Anti-Access/Area-Denial as an organizing concept. šš»

This paper grew out of 1) the increasing mismatch between the A2/AD concept and emerging threats, 2) its misrepresentation of operational challenges, and 3) its misapplication to Russian military strategy as outlined by @KofmanMichael et al. 2/20
For years A2/AD focused thinking on Chinese threats to U.S. military operations in East Asia. The evolution of these threats strained its conceptual bounds. The phrase became an "intellectual junk drawer," into which DoD planners threw all aspects of the China problem. 3/20
