Strategic Command’s Post

A recent exercise in the Pacific region provided the U.S. military and international partners one of the first chances to truly game out the Pentagon’s new warfare concept for connecting forces and capabilities on a grand scale. Valiant Shield, which occurred in mid-June, is a biennial exercise focused on integration between the services in a multi-domain environment in the Pacific region. This year’s exercise, the tenth such event, involved multinational partners for the first time. It allowed American forces and foreign militaries — including participation from U.S. Space Command and U.S. Transportation Command — to focus on real-world events while testing concepts such as Combined Joint All-Domain Command and Control (CJADC2), which envisions how systems across the entire battlespace from all the services and key international partners could be more effectively and holistically networked to provide the right data to commanders, faster. https://lnkd.in/d-gfDzDT

The potential establishment of a U.S. military presence in Berbera, coupled with possible recognition under a new administration, could fundamentally reshape the balance of power in one of the world’s most strategically contested maritime corridors. https://lnkd.in/gRu8pKfc

International Geospatial Cooperations in the support of NATO and our Allies. This week more than 30 nations met in Bruxelles for the yearly meetings in three different military international cooperations; DGIWG provides geospatial standards to the military communities, the TREx program produces a global elevation model and the MGCP program is producing topographical vector data covering the participating nations areas of interest. These three cooperation contributes greatly to the geospatial capabilities and readiness of all the participating nations and our national contribution constitutes a significant part of our burden sharing within the military geospatial area.

“The PLA likely seeks to combine digital influence activities with the “Three Warfares” concept to demoralize adversaries and influence domestic and foreign audiences, creating an environment advantageous to the PRC. Since at least the mid-2010s, the PLA has been incorporating the concept of cognitive warfare or CDO into PLA frameworks for conducting influence operations. While the concept of cognitive warfare appears to be a PLA specific, overall PRC influence operations reflect a whole-of-government approach to shaping the information environment. From the PRC’s perspective, all nations—especially the United States—that use digital narratives to undermine the CCP’s authoritarian system and employ offensive influence operations. Hence, the PRC considers its influence operations that counter this perceived subversion as defensive to protect the party and the military.” - 2024 China Military Power Report, U.S. Department of Defense
