Description

Soldier Modernization - Thematic Intelligence


Summary

As concerns over the outbreak of a near-peer conflict were realized following the Russian invasion of Ukraine in early 2022, the nature of this conflict has validated the focus of many armies worldwide on modernizing the capabilities of the modern infantry soldier to maximize their effectiveness on an increasingly networked, digitized, and unconventional battlespace. As demonstrated by hostilities in Ukraine, soldiers equipped with a convoluted mix of equipment including legacy anti-vehicular weapons systems coupled with commercial-of-the-shelf (COTS) products such as man-portable drones and thermal imaging sights—can still deliver outsized effects against a numerically and technologically superior adversary.

As the technological gap between major geopolitical adversaries like China and the US continues to diminish, commanders at both the tactical and strategic levels have placed greater emphasis on diversifying the capabilities of the individual soldier within the context of combined arms maneuvers and multi-domain operations (MDO). However, the war in Ukraine has also demonstrated the un-paralleled lethality of modern high-intensity warfare (HIW), with the attrition rate of human assets far surpassing that which many had grown accustomed to during the insurgencies of the Global War on Terror. Consequently, investing in the survivability of the modern soldier remains equally as important as the diversification of their roles and capabilities on the modern battlefield, factors which are likely to shape the global market for integrated soldier systems (ISS) over the next decade.

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
