Some military scientists and historians believe that the United States is currently witnessing a revolution in military technology. This monograph examines whether this revolution can significantly alter the nature of tactical warfare so that deep operations may now be the preferred means to achieve corps battle objectives. This monograph first examines current and emerging Amy and Air Force doctrine. This discussion establishes the framework for further comparison. The paper then explores the concept of military technical revolutions (MTRs) and evaluates current high-tech weapons system to resolve whether or not the U.S. is currently witnessing an MTR. The monograph then relates the corps deep operations process of DECIDE-DETECT-DELIVER to the previously discussed weapons systems to determine if corp deep operations can now independently achieve battle objectives. After concluding that corps deep operations can achieve battle objectives under certain conditions, the monograph then discusses potential implications for both Army and Air Force doctrine.Read More
