The Kill Chain

Defending America in the Future of High-Tech Warfare
Book • 2020
In 'The Kill Chain,' Christian Brose argues that the U.S.

military is losing pace to technological advancements and strategic shifts by adversaries such as China and Russia.

Brose introduces the concept of the 'kill chain'—a process involving understanding the situation, decision-making, and executing actions—to highlight the need for a defensive mindset in modern warfare.

He advocates for a shift from traditional offensive strategies to a culture and doctrine of defense, emphasizing the use of advanced technologies like artificial intelligence and autonomous systems to prevent war, deter aggression, and maintain peace.
