Russia has developed monitoring capabilities that can easily track NATO troops, British defense expert Jack Watling told a Finnish media outlet.
“Our armies heavily rely on military camouflage. Trying to hide is probably impossible today if you want to get something done on the battlefield. […] Since the enemy [the Russian military] has the technology to see what we do; we must learn to operate in a way that makes it difficult for them to interpret what is being done,” Watling said.
The expert regards the Ukraine conflict as a great lesson for NATO in modern warfare involving high-tech surveillance and targeting.
Due to Russia’s advanced systems, the Ukrainian has leadership failed to protect their top officers, who play a pivotal role on the battlefield, Watling added. Retaining experienced military personnel in a potential 21st century armed conflict is something NATO should seriously consider.
