Just another scare tactic by the MIC for more funding. In the age of hypersonics and drones, are ground troops ineffective fodder?

No one is foolish enough to get into a land war in Asia.

That has been the clarion call for decades now. “We don’t need troops, we can win in the air.

It’s boots on the ground that take and hold territory.

Aircraft can’t, ships can’t, missiles can’t, computer games can’t.

Boots, with armed men in them.

Anyone saying anything else is both delusional and ignorant.
