So this hybrid concept that I think is going to be a shaping force for Western armed forces in the years ahead.
For the West at least, we took a holiday from war, didn't we?
And it's now coming back.
It's more palpable.
I just think of the fact that in the last couple of months we've seen two ballistic missile attacks on Turkey, drone attacks on an EU country, Cyprus.
We've seen Russian drones coming into Poland.
Isn't that remarkable?
Last year we saw the first and most substantial Indian Pakistani airstrike.
Since 1971, war occurring under that nuclear threshold.
We have seen the Iran War spread all the way from the Mediterranean to Sri Lanka, the first act of an American submarine torpedoing an enemy warship since the Second World War.

It's not even the 2000s anymore.
These are not wars that are far away, far from home.

You have countries that were once quiet and restricted.
