Ukraine: Why NATO Tactics fail

In this video we look what NATO training, doctrine & tactics don't work or apply in the war in Ukraine. For this I asked a former German combat engineer that was extensively trained in NATO doctrine and also served in the Ukraine War as a volunteer.

In my opinion, Bernhard, I think the first thing we should take into account is the difference between a geopolitical war and a total war. If a conflict circunstances caracterize and manifests themselves closer to what we deem to be a "total war", and one of the beligerants have plenty freedom of action, tactics may also perform closer to the ideal of the theory and the military training. However, in my understanding, this isn't the same for geopolitical wars where broader contexts may play a significant role and change the nature and contingencies of the tactics undertaken. Ukraine's War, to some extent, is kind of like what Vietnam was, perhaps. Vietnam was a quite significant geopolitical war. In my understanding, political factors, economical, sociological, the public opinion, all these will play a very significant role in the outcome of this war. So, tactics should be aimed to fulfill those targets instead of the standards of military practice. Specially because the situation for Ukraine is very difficult. Ukraine isn't a NATO country, and yet it is fighting a bigger, more experienced opponent. In my way of seeing this, I think the situation on the ground and ground warfare in general will not make the best impact there, as we have being seeing for quite some time already. Given the overall situation, Ukraine War should be fought in the skies, preferentially with cheaper material and equipment. It should turn out to be more than a Battle of England of drones. It should turn out to be a late ww2 raid war of drones. That's where economy plays a factor, as I was talking about, it is time for Ukraine to try rampering the industrial output of drones for them to be more readily available. Ukraine has been using drone attacks quite effectively, yet it is still quite shy compared to what I think could be performed. And I don't think the West should look into escalating the war. Drone warfare isn't escalation, it is Guerrilla Warfare made in the sky. That's what Ukraine needs. Air Guerrilla Warfare. Breaking a very well established defensive line of a stronger opponent is very, very difficult. Even if they keep sending their best tanks after their best tanks, the probability of a breakthrough in such circumstances is very low. All they're doing is providing the Russians with intel on Western military machines. It is time to sit and think about what they have, what they could develop in the circunstances around and how to implement this opposition.
