Valery Gerasimov Quotes

Nuclear weapons are considered as a means of forcing a potential adversary to refuse to unleash aggression against our country.

Information about Russia's alleged impending invasion of Ukraine is a lie.

At the same time, we should not copy someone else's experience and catch up with the leading countries, but work ahead of the curve and be in leading positions ourselves. And here military science plays an important role.

In the 21st century, there is a tendency to blur the distinction between the state of war and peace. Wars are no longer declared, and once they have begun, they do not proceed according to the pattern we are accustomed to.

Russia managed to put an end to the advance of the Ukrainian incursion into the Kursk region.

Another factor influencing the change in the content of modern methods of warfare is the use of modern military robotic systems and research in the field of artificial intelligence. In addition to flying drones today, tomorrow the battlefield will be filled with walking, crawling, jumping and flying robots. In the near future, it is possible to create fully robotic formations capable of conducting independent combat operations.

The emphasis of the used methods of confrontation is shifting towards the widespread use of political, economic, informational, humanitarian and other non-military measures, implemented with the use of the protest potential of the population. All this is complemented by military measures of a covert nature, including the implementation of information warfare measures and the actions of special operations forces. The open use of force, often under the guise of peacekeeping and crisis settlement, is only shifted at some stage, mainly to achieve final success in a conflict.

Among such actions are the use of special-operations forces and internal opposition to create a permanently operating front through the entire territory of the enemy state, as well as informational actions, devices, and means that are constantly being perfected.

Asymmetric actions have become widespread, making it possible to neutralize the enemy's superiority in armed struggle. These include the use of special operations forces and internal opposition to create a permanently operating front throughout the territory of the opposing state, as well as informational influence, the forms and methods of which are constantly being improved.

Any scientific research in the field of military science is worthless if military theory does not provide the function of foresight.
