description: How will wars be fought in this new century? The answer, according to authors Marc Cerasini and Col. Jimmie Butler, will be via a cutting edge weaponry and technology. Unlike wars past, the armed conflicts of the 21st century will see innovative use of computers, satellite imagery, and weapons such as Tomahawk cruise missiles, and nuclear-powered aircraft of all stripes. On the air, in the sea, or on the ground, wars will be fought with the XMS Electronic Fighting Vehicle; the RAH-66 "Comanche" Attack Helicopter, the Bradley Stinger Air Defense Vehicle, and Harpoon anti-ship missiles. The Future of War will explore in painstaking detail the ways science, technology and innovation will provide a tactical advantage over our enemies that will lead us to victory on the battlefields of the 21st century.
