Military Actions Characteristics in Hybrid Operational Environments

The theoretical approaches regarding the security/operational environment aimed at a multidimensional and integrative perspective, because its understanding requires not only analysis of the physical terrain, but also the perspective of the actors involved, and of the factors from the informational environment (including cyberspace) and those specific to the civilian population. The field of contemporary military confrontations is extremely difficult to analyze because of the dynamics of the phenomenon and internal processes, of the implemented technologies and, last but not least, as a result of the manifestation of VUCA (Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity and Ambiguity) characteristics within them. But, the effort of scientific investigations was directed starting from the premise that the identification of the characteristics and of the factors specific to the future confrontational environment serves as a starting point in the approach of conceptual-doctrinal and operational adaptation/transformation of the military forces. An attempt was made to find the answer to the question: which are the conditions, circumstances and factors characteristic of the confrontational environment that influence the efficiency and coherence of the actions of the engaged capabilities?
