How did they wargame this?
Video Summary
A comprehensive analysis of a military strategy has revealed a series of fundamental flaws, highlighting a sense of naivety and misunderstanding of military doctrine. The plan, intended to demonstrate a quick victory, was doomed from the start. It is believed that the strategy was based on unrealistic assumptions, including the idea that the enemy, in this case Russia, would be incompetent and ineffective. This notion was likely influenced by a lack of understanding of Russian military capabilities and the complexities of modern warfare. The use of war games, a common Western military exercise, was also employed to test and refine the plan, but these simulations may have been misinformed and unrealistic. Ultimately, the strategy’s failure was anticipated, and it is clear that a more thorough and realistic understanding of military doctrine was needed to achieve a successful outcome.
