Wars Aren't Won by Numbers, They're Won by Strategy | Air Cdre Khalid Chishti

Do bigger armies always win wars? According to Air Commodore (R) Khalid Chishti, modern conflicts are not decided by the number of tanks, fighter jets, or submarines. The true objective of war is to impose such a high cost on your adversary that you gain the upper hand at the negotiating table.

In this thought-provoking clip from the Nautical Dialogue Series, Air Cdre Chishti explainsy strategy, deterrence, and the economic cost of conflict matter more than numerical superiority in modern warfare.
