Modern warfare is no longer decided only by weapons, tactics, or battlefield brilliance. It is decided by something far less visible: industrial capacity.For decades, Western defense strategy has been built on the assumption that technological superiority and economic strength guarantee military dominance. But the wars of the 21st century are revealing a different reality. Behind every missile fired, every drone launched, and every artillery barrage lies a mathematical constraint: ...
