“As warfare expands from the physical to the synthetic and cognitive realms, the Indian Armed Forces need to transition from net-centric operations toward Intelligent Warfare and move beyond Multi-Domain Operations (MDO) to All-Realm All-Domain Operations (ARADO)” said Chief of Defence Staff, General Anil Chauhan.Delivering the inaugural address at the CDM annual seminar on the theme ‘Multi-Domain Integrated Technologically-Empowered Resilient Armed Forces’, or MITRA, at the College of Defence Management, Secunderabad, General Chauhan said the evolving character of warfare demands a shift in doctrine, capability development and organisational thinking to retain decision advantage across the spectrum of conflict.Published - February 26, 2026 02:56 pm IST
