Abstract
A complex, interconnected set of factors characterizes the likely future world environment with which United States military forces must be prepared to cope. Crisis and conflict may occur in almost any area of the world and may take place simultaneously in geographically separate places.For example, NATO forces face a formidable threat from the Warsaw Pact in Eastern Europe. The Warsaw Pact's ground forces include about 200 divisions (there are about 15,000 men in a division). They operate 60,000 tanks and possess over 3500 tactical bombers and fighter aircraft. By anyone's standards, this represents a large conventional threat.Current United . . .Keywords
