The Missile Problem and WWIII: How Indirect Fire Delays Victory

Megacities Warfare Defeats 1980’s Thinking
Population Density and Urban Complexity are the main aggregate variables that make warfare near the Earth’s surface harder than anywhere else to find the enemy and strike them.

Example: If you had a rifle on a roadway and were surrounded by windows in all buildings, which one do you look at first? The second you aim at one you focus on a smaller area while you are helpless against every other window.

The worst population density and urban complexity is found in megacities with over 10,000,000 people, >350,000 vehicles, and 10,000 buildings compressed into confined spaces.
All remote weapons will become the most lethal even in megacities when they are augmented with sensors and AI to find and finish targets without operator awareness.

Operators as supervisors delegate the final 5m to the drone / mortar / artillery payload to determine best way to effect.

Augment AI is the wave of WWIII disruption that will be painfully learned too late for first troops on the landing zones.

There is time if we can convince people this is important enough to support.
