Far reaching propositions: sea-based, barrel-launched guided projectiles and conventionally armed cruise missiles are already demonstrating considerable effectiveness. The same is true of land-based weapons. Several countries are now working to exploit the full potential of such weapon systems for the precision engagement of critical targets at the beachhead, on the extended battle-field and far beyond.

Guided bombs are getting better; coalition efforts in the 1991 Gulf War involved the first large-scale use of laser-guided bombs, and demonstrated their excellent cost-effectiveness in medium altitude releases against high-contrast fixed targets in clear weather daylight conditions.

Hit the ground running with Brugg Cables; the requirements on mobile communications for the military can be both demanding and heavy. The Swiss company Brugg Cables has developed a fibre optic cable to overcome many of the obstacles inherent in land-based communication networks -- a cable that has begun to draw much attention.

New doctrine puts pressure on air defence; to achieve its objective of fighting wars without incurring casualties, the United States has come to rely upon air power to cripple an enemy to the point where surrender becomes the preferred option. This new doctrine was clearly followed in Operation Enduring Freedom in Afghanistan but the conduct of the American-led Nato conflict over Kosovo revealed similar thinking. (Simulation Approach).

Safe fuzing of submunitions is possible; to render a submunition as harmless as a piece of dead wood is feasible, as Instalaza has proved it with its new Mat 120 cargo bomb. In fact, Armada's Editor discovered that this Spanish company has several aces up its sleeve. (What's Up?).	Biass, Eric H.	1081
Shoot the messenger--with electrons; as recent military campaigns in Afghanistan, Yugoslavia and Iraq have shown, the enemy's command and control facilities are an early target for attack. Front-line forces unable to receive orders and commanders unable to contact the units they command face inevitable defeat. Communications jamming is an important tool in creating this electronic `fog of war'. (Electronic Warfare).	Richardson, Doug	3353

Technology adapted for jungle warfare; jungle theatres provide some of the most challenging conditions for military operations anywhere on earth. Unlike the wide-open spaces of the hot deserts or the Arctic tundra, which offer their own challenges of extreme climatic conditions, the confines of the jungle hinder navigation and movement, forcing the soldier closer to nature than any other type of operation.

Top cover -- air defence turrets: the low-flying strike aircraft and assault helicopter constitute the mechanised land forces' main enemies. Both present potentially lethal, fast-moving and fleeting targets that are difficult to engage other than by dedicated air defence vehicles with rapid response weapons. (Air Defence).
