The US military’s next significant challenge: Hiding
A senior U.S. military officer has warned that Iranian attacks on American bases in the Middle East have revealed that current U.S. war strategies are becoming outdated, with concealment emerging as a growing operational priority.
Why this matters: When a military starts losing the ability to hide its forces and assets, it rethinks how it fights. That shift has real consequences for how bases are built, where troops are stationed, and what surveillance and tracking technology gets developed. More concealment also means less visibility for the public and for oversight bodies. If the answer to exposure is secrecy, it matters who decides what gets hidden, where, and from whom.
