Beyond Cyber Fires and Ukraine: PLASSF Impact on a Sino-Indian Conventional War

This brief argues that by its very nature, the war has lessons not just for the adversaries, but also the NATO alliance that is backing Ukraine, and even geographically distant China and India. For one, the war has both elements of the old eras—such as the mass
