Show of force A show of force is a military operation intended to warn or intimidate an opponent and to showcase one ' s own capability or will to act if provoked . Shows of force may also be executed by police forces and other armed , non - military groups . Function . Shows of force have historically been undertaken mostly by a military actor unwilling to engage in all - out hostilities , but fearing to ' lose face ' ( i . e . to appear weak ) . By performing a carefully calculated provocation , the opponent is to be shown that violent confrontation remains an option , and that there will be no ( or no further ) backing off on the principle the show of force is to defend . Shows of force may be actual military operations , but in times of official peace , they may also be limited to military exercise s . Shows of force also work on a smaller scale – i . e . military forces on a tactical level using mock attacks to deter potential opponents , especially when a real attack on suspected ( but unconfirmed ) enemies might harm civilians . As an example , most air " attacks " during OEF and OIF have been simple shows of force where jet aircraft drop flare s only while making loud , low - level passes . One recent 12 - month report for Afghanistan noted 18 , 019 strike sorties by United States military aircraft , but weapons use in only 3 , 330 of these missions . Risk of escalation . Shows of force , while intended as ' gestures ' have a risk of being considered part of a larger or more extensive operation , and can invite responses or retaliation beyond those intended .
