.#Thread @indiannavy Chief Adm R Harikumar at @OfficialCLAWSIN webinar outlines 3 factors influencing the contours of #warfare - contemporary geopolitical climate specifically return of #GreatPower Competition, technology and evolution of #cyber as a vital domain for warfare
…Great Power Competition. Underscored by a multipolar world order with overlapping spheres of influence, this comp. is leading to jostling between nations on day-to-day basis, across regions and domains. …if unchecked or unregulated is likely to lead to conflict: Navy Chief
We are all aware that at the operational and tactical level, this competition is already manifesting in the form of greyzone warfare, hybrid warfare, salami slicing, etc: @indiannavy Chief Adm Harikumar on Great Power competition #IndoPacific #IOR
Cyber domain interacts endlessly with all other domains of land, sea, air, and space. Also, the lack of international regulations on use of #cyber-space, and plausible deniability complicates the situation even further. This is one domain that merits our undivided attention: CNS
Navy Chief: Based on these future wars would be:
-Multi-domain with a complicated escalation mechanism.
-Catalysed by niche technology which would have a disruptive impact and may even alter the military balance…

-Given our security situation, the probability of a full blown conflict can never be ruled out… Notwithstanding, to my mind, most future conflicts are likely to be predominantly limited.
-Rather, we are involved in managing these conflicts even now on a day-to-day basis: CNS
Word of caution here, #technology alone will not be enough. Incorporation of tech must be suitably supported by evolutionary doctrines n associated concepts. Seamless integration of tech into our concept of ops and their optimal utility is what, we as leaders have to ensure: CNS
Enduring nature of war offers avenues for creative student of mil history & statecraft to contextualize lessons from past to imagine contem n future scenarios. It will improve ability to b agile in thinking, nimble-footed in approach n thorough in preparing response mechs: CNS
…The large volume of knowledge encapsulated in our ancient texts, epics, treatises etc would be educative in this regard: @indiannavy Chief Adm Harikumar @OfficialCLAWSIN webinar #Warfare #Technologies #cyber #space

Thread @IAF_MCC Chief at @OfficialCLAWSIN webinar: In past rise n fall of nations was dictated by size & prowess of fielded forces. However, conflicts in last few decades clearly established w/o doubt preeminence of air power as instrumnt of choice for almost all op contingencies
Knowing that budget will always remain a constraint, prioritization of procurement at national level for key combat elements and enablers becomes very critical. We need training and equipment not to fight the last war but to fight n win tomorrow's wars: ACM VR Chaudhari #AirPower
In future, we could be attacked on all fronts, starting from economic strangulation to diplomatic isolation and military standoffs to information blackout in the form of distributed denial of services: @IAF_MCC Chief ACM Chaudhari #AirPower #IndoPacific #IOR

.#Thread Gen Naravane at @OfficialCLAWSIN webinar: We hv observed sme nations challenging globally accepted norms & #RulesBasedOrder. This challenge has manifested in various forms of creeping aggression n opportunist actions to alter status quo keeping threshold below allout war
Dev in #Afghanistan have again brought to focus use of proxies & nonstate actors to decisive effects. They thrive on local conditions, innovatively exploit low cost options to devastating impact n create conditions that limit full use of sophisticated cpblt avl to the state: COAS
The concept of victory itself has changed as enduring success, especially against non-state actors has remained elusive for most: @adgpi Chief Gen Naravane speaking at @OfficialCLAWSIN seminar

We are heading back to bipolar/multipolar world, is it good/bad 4 int community only time will tell. Wht we r certainly seeing is more aggression on part of nations, specially 1 thats tryin 2 go into bipolar world or makin presence felt thts #China
They (China) are becoming more n more aggressive and we share land borders with them. Its time for us to start looking at our strategies as to how we are going to deal with the two borders... aggressive adversaries, Pak on Western front & China on the North: CDS Gen Bipin Rawat
We need to also start looking at transformation for the betterment and ensuring the national security architecture that we want to evolve is capable of handling the threats that are emerging. To do this we need jointmanship amongst all the security forces: Gen Rawat at @iicdelhi

.#Thread Our procurement process unfortunately hasn’t kept pace with requirements of time. Many the procedural lacunae have crept into acquisition process due to overbearing nature of our rules & regulations, leading to a ‘Zero Error Syndrome’: @adgpi Chief Gen Naranave @USI_1870
Needs of Info Era Warfare cant b hamstrung by procedures of Industrial Age. Need of the hour is to have metamorphosis here too, perhaps even doing away wth concept of L1 vendor altogether. For real transformation 2 take place, we require a Revolution in Bureaucratic Affairs: COAS
We have also brought about major structural changes in our organisation by aligning both the revenue and capital routes of procurement under the Deputy Chief of Army Staff (Capability Development and Sustenance): Gen Naravane @USI_1870

Conflict over the island of Taiwan will be a disaster for the people of the region and something we all must work to avoid: Gen Campbell @CDF_Aust Australia, with Chief of Staff @joinstaffpa, Gen Bipin Rawat, CDS India @HQ_IDS_India, @TimSCahill1 & @BBCYaldaHakim #Raisina2021
Geopolitics coupled with geoeconomics is seeking to reshape the rules governing the world order. This leads to conflicts and thats wht we are witnessing on our northern borders... we are witnessing a nation first approach...: Gen Rawat @HQ_IDS_India, @BBCYaldaHakim #Raisina2021
India has stood firm on the northern borders and we will not be pushed... International community has come in our support: CDS Gen Rawat on #LadakhStandoff #Raisina2021 @BBCYaldaHakim @raisinadialogue

We have seen regular naval Chinese presence in Indian Ocean for over decade now. Their trade, energy all come frm their West. It wont b surprising to see thm coming into IO soon, as its said the flag follows trade: @indiannavy Chief Adm Singh on PLA Navy #Raisina2021 #IndoPacific
.@indiannavy Adm Singh stresses on information sharing in #IndoPacific, coz info leads to awareness... Once we are comfortable in the white shipping, we must move to the grey shipping. Ultimate idea would be to be able to plug and play, he says with @raji143 #Raisina2021
As far as military part is concerned, navies of Aus, Japan, US & India already enjoy a high degree of interoperability. If an opportunity arises, we have capability & capacity to come together in almost plug n play mechanism: CNS @indiannavy #Quad #Raisina2021 @raji143 @INDOPACOM
