    Default Non-State Threats and Future Wars (Book)

    Partial Preview available at (google books).

    In the Google preview it talks about "sixth-generation warfare theory (Slipchenko)"

    I was able to find the citation "Vladimir I. Slipchenko, “A Russian Analysis. of Warfare Leading to the Sixth Generation,” Field Artillery, October. 1993, 38–41"

    So off to http://sill-www.army.mil/famag/1993.asp I go... Well I'm sure they'll fix the site some day... Does anybody have the original article handy in like a .pdf?

    I had no problem with the FAMAG site - the article pulled up in pdf right away:

    A Russian Analysis of Warfare Leading to the Sixth Generation, Field Artillery, Oct 93

    With some people saying we're not in a 4th generation warfare environment I thought it was interesting too.

    I read the article. A lot of techno-wienie fluff. Assume all the hard missions won't exist and you can concentrate on the missions you assume will exist. Assume the answer is 22 trucks.
