‘It is no secret that modern warfare is increasingly dependent on advanced computers – and no country’s are more reliant on the digital age for information superiority than those of the US. This is both the American military’s greatest strength – and potentially its greatest weakness.

Not surprisingly, potential adversaries have taken note of America’s slavish dependence on information technology.’
