New Delhi, April 19 (UNI) The second edition of the Tri-services Future Warfare Course will be held here from April 21 to May 9 aiming to foster a comprehensive understanding of how technological advancements are transforming the nature of warfare.

The course is being conducted under the aegis of Headquarters Integrated Defence Staff and coordinated by the tri-services think-tank, Centre for Joint Warfare Studies (CENJOWS), an official statement said.

Building on the success of the first course held in September 2024, the expanded three-week programme continues the vision of Chief of the Defence Staff General Anil Chauhan to prepare officers for the complex challenges of modern warfare. The course maintains its rank-agnostic approach, albeit with an enhanced and diverse participation.

This edition features an enhanced curriculum covering specialised subjects and domain-specific warfare developments in military operations. It focuses on developing a good understanding on how war fighting is being impacted by technology, necessitating a re-look at the thinking, concepts, doctrines, strategies and tactics, techniques and procedures. It will align operational priorities with the capabilities of the indigenous defence industry and enable a free-flowing discussion on the various facets of modern and futuristic war fighting.

The attendees in the course range from Major Generals to Majors and their equivalent officers from other services, along with representatives from other departments under the Defence Ministry, including DRDO, as defence industry incorporating start-ups, MSMEs, DPSUs and private industry.

The second edition continues the larger mission of making the armed forces ‘future ready’ fostering jointness and integration among the Services and developing strategic leaders equipped to navigate the increasingly complex landscape of modern warfare.
