It is characterized by hostility, social disturbance and economic slowdown .It is a worldwide phenomenon whose range is defined by the societies that are in conflict. The nature of war describes its rigid essence: that is, those things that differentiate war from other things. War’s nature is basically violence, interactive, and principally political. Far away from any of these factors, then this could be rather something else. The nature of war in current 21st century is dominated by technology.

Thesis statement
This broadsheet stipulates an in-depth explanation of tremendous changes in the conduct of war in the world.
To begin with, impact of technology: Modern technology has rapid changed the speed and lethality nature of warfare for instance, US Air force combat experts have the potentiality to identify a target with a portable electronic device, it’s very possible for many people in the world to predict that technology will change the world, in fact technology advancements does not change the universe, the world has not changed at all, basically, it will never change. What changes is the atmosphere and form of the war and sophisticated technology is what catalyzes these changes in atmosphere and form. It is impossible to predict the outcome of any war.

Instead, it can be argued that the strategy in Afghanistan has disputed the principle of overwhelming force. Features of the Revolution in technical Military Affairs and technological improvements in warfare have permitted a minor group of special setups units to efficiently instrument an overwhelming level of armaments. However, this knowledge of neo-limited war is only partlyaccurate. Strat...
