Paperback. Condition: New. On today's complex, fragmented, fast-moving battlefield, where combatants adapt constantly to exploit one-another's weaknesses, there is a demonstrable requirement for military commanders to devolve a high level of autonomy of decision-making and action to leaders on the ground. An effective model for…doing this has existed for some time in the form of mission command and has been utilized by the U.S., Israeli, and British Armies-but with mixed success. This book examines in depth the experiences of the armed forces of each of these countries in implementing mission command, and reveals the key factors that have determined the success or failure of the implementation-factors such as the Revolution in Military Affairs (RMA), the spread of low-intensity conflicts and operations other than war, and differences in how military cultures interpret, articulate, and exercise the command function. It has significant implications for both the development of military doctrine and the training and education of tomorrow's military leaders.

Hardback. Condition: New. A world-leading military strategist and an IDF insider explain the improbable success of the Israeli armed forces.When the Israel Defense Forces was established in May 1948, it was small, poorly equipped, and already at war. Lacking sufficient weaponry or the domestic industrial base to produce it, the…newborn military was forced to make do with whatever it could get its hands on. That spirit of improvisation carried the IDF to a decisive victory in the First Arab-Israeli War.Today the same spirit has made the IDF the most powerful military in the Middle East and among the most capable in the world. In The Art of Military Innovation, Edward N. Luttwak and Eitan Shamir trace the roots of this astounding success. What sets the IDF apart, they argue, is its singular organizational structure. From its inception, it has been the world's only one-service military, encompassing air, naval, and land forces in a single institutional body. This unique structure, coupled with a young officer corps, allows for initiative from below. The result is a nimble organization inclined toward change rather than beholden to tradition.The IDF has fostered some of the most significant advances in military technology of the past seventy years, from the first wartime use of drones to the famed Iron Dome missile defense system, and now the first laser weapon, Iron Beam. Less-heralded innovations in training, logistics, and human resources have been equally important. Sharing rich insights and compelling stories, Luttwak and Shamir reveal just what makes the IDF so agile and effective.

Paperback. Condition: New. In this major re-evaluation of Moshe Dayan's life and career, Eitan Shamir examines one of the most influential individuals in the history of modern Israel. As IDF Chief of Staff, theatre commander during the Sinai campaign and defence minister during the Six Days and Yom Kippur Wars, Dayan shaped Isra…eli history as well as the principles of Israel's security and foreign affairs. Eitan Shamir explores the basis and justification for Dayan's reputation as a strategist and what made his command and leadership unique. He reveals the ways in which Moshe Dayan led and planned his campaigns, how he made his decisions and his style as a general and a strategist. His findings shed important new light on broader issues of military command and culture, political-military relations, insurgency and counterinsurgency and the relations between small states and large powers, drawing lasting lessons for strategy today.

Condition: New. Idioma/Language: Español. Un libro absolutamente revelador del arte de la guerra contemporánea, en el que un estratega militar de renombre internacional y un distinguido miembro de las FDI desentrañan los secretos que se ocultan detrás del improbable éxito, en sus inicios, de las Fuerzas de Defensa de Israel. Des…de sus humildes comienzos en mayo de 1948, mal equipadas, con escasa base industrial pero armadas de un espíritu de improvisación inédito, forjaron su camino hacia una victoria decisiva en la primera guerra árabe-israelí, su gran hito. Gracias a Edward N. Luttwak y Eitan Shamir conoceremos la historia militar de Israel, incidiendo en la evolución de sus fuerzas de defensa y cómo han logrado convertirse no solo en el Ejército más poderoso de Oriente Próximo, sino en uno de los más poderosos del mundo. Descubriremos el corazón de su éxito: una estructura organizativa única que abarca fuerzas aéreas, navales y terrestres bajo un solo organismo institucional. Esta singularidad, combinada con un cuerpo de oficiales jóvenes, fomenta la iniciativa «desde abajo», creando una organización ágil y orientada al cambio permanente. Las FDI no solo han sido pioneras en el campo de batalla, sino que también han liderado avances significativos en tecnología militar. Desde el primer uso de drones en tiempos de guerra hasta el famoso sistema de defensa antimisiles Iron Dome y la revolucionaria arma láser Iron Beam, su legado de innovación es indiscutible. Además, las mejoras desconocidas en entrenamiento, logística y gestión de recursos humanos han desempeñado un papel crucial en su éxito. Luttwak y Shamir desvelan los principios clave que han transformado a las Fuerzas de Defensa de Israel en una fuerza militar ágil y efectiva, explorando la maestría estratégica y la creatividad táctica que las han posicionado a la vanguardia de la innovación militar durante las últimas siete décadas. «Rico en detalles raros, muchos de ellos fruto del acceso de los autores a los santuarios internos de las FDI y su conocimiento íntimo de la gran estrategia y la historia militar».
