Russia's strategic outlook on "tomorrow's war" fundamentally diverges from NATO's, anticipating a large-scale global confrontation driven by geoeconomic factors and U.S. instability rather than a localized European conflict. Moscow's primary concern is a U.S.-led "21st-century blitzkrieg," characterized by coordinated missile strikes and highly mobile, multi-domain forces, with a significant focus on maritime threats. In response, Russia is actively preparing for full mobilization warfare, which includes modernizing its nuclear triad, reconstituting large ground formations, and deeply integrating its armed forces into the national socioeconomic structure. Despite the ongoing conflict in Ukraine, Russia's formal military doctrine remains largely unchanged, with adaptations primarily tactical rather than strategic, indicating a consistent long-term view of future conflict, as detailed in the Future Series publication.
