Conventional warfare has given way to a complex arena of low-intensity conflict fought worldwide by a mix of international and transnational actors.

Defence organisations now have to simultaneously deploy overseas on multiple fronts, work together more closely and conduct a broader range of operations than at any time in history - all with increasing pressure on resources and budgets.
