Four Threat Types

To answer Senator Nunn’s question, in 1994 I conceptualized these four warrior classes.

Each of these warrior classes has very distinct strengths and weaknesses.

They also have different "ways of war"; and different types of war will be fought between different kinds of warrior classes.

This is where the concept of asymmetric warfare must come in, for we have a combination of Achilles’ heels within our own capabilities, and a real incapacity for dealing with three of the four warrior classes.

TRANSITION: We can look at these four classes in another way.
