Gen. Donahue: 我认为重建在欧洲的地面威慑力量至关重要，这需要我们突破反介入/区域拒止（A2AD）气泡，阻止大规模集结，并保持进攻能力。我们正在进行的陆军转型计划旨在改变美国陆军和联合部队的作战方式，不仅在欧洲，而且在全球范围内。为了实现这一目标，我们需要精通基本技能，构建网络和下一代C2系统，以连接各种新的大规模作战形式，从而超越我们的对手。我们还必须从乌克兰的经验中学习，并与我们的盟友合作，实现真正的互操作性。此外，我们必须降低成本，确保我们发射的武器比敌方发射的更便宜。通过这些努力，我们可以建立一支更强大、更具适应性和更具成本效益的军队，以应对未来的挑战。我坚信，我们正在朝着正确的方向前进，并且我们有能力实现我们的目标。我对我们的领导层和士兵们充满信心，他们将能够适应这些变化，并为我们的国家提供最好的服务。

Shownotes Transcript

Gen. Christopher Todd Donahue, who leads U.S. Army Europe and Africa as well as Allied Land Command, joined Ryan for a discussion at WOTR HQ. For the first five minutes, they chat about his Army story, his time in the Ranger Regiment, before discussing how the Army Transformation Initiative is unfolding in Europe, from maneuver brigades, new technologies, command-and-control, drone and counter-drone operations, and more. Donahue previews how the U.S. Army has deliberately identified lessons from the war in Ukraine and how the Army fits into the joint fight.
