Good to know
  • The manoeuvrist approach is an indirect approach which emphasises targeting the enemy’s moral component of fighting power rather than the physical.
  • The manoeuvrist approach involves a combination of all available means to attack the enemy’s understanding, undermine their will and shatter their cohesion. The manoeuvrist approach aims to attack the enemy’s critical vulnerabilities to induce shock. This is done through surprise, shock action and destruction, which leads to an enemy’s collapse and friendly force exploitation. It also seeks to build our partners’ strengths and reduce and protect our own weaknesses and vulnerabilities.
