This issue of the TRISA Red Diamond spotlights several articles on current events concerning real-world Threats and variations on tactics, techniques, and procedures. Of note, The Operational Environment to 2028: The Strategic Environment for Unified land Operations, describes the key CONDITIONS manifesting across the strategic environment through 2028. This document also addresses military implications of both OE conditions and potential adversary strategies.
The current and future strategic environment will be characterized by uncertainty, complexity, and increasingly nuanced relationships. The conditions of the strategic environment must be understood, captured, and factored into Army decision making. Only then can realistic training, the correct combination of systems and capabilities, and adaptive approaches to leader development and education be identified, examined, and implemented across TRADOC and the Army in general.
