Which one of the following is not identified as the impact of the 'Revolution in Military Affairs' (RMA) for future wars ?

  • A.Unattainability of total strategic and tactical surprise
  • B.Need to avoid nuclear war
  • C.Increasing costs of weapon systems
  • D.Easy sustenance of the armed forces

Answer: D

Easy sustenance of the armed forces is not an impact of the RMA for future wars. The impacts usually named are that total strategic and tactical surprise becomes hard to achieve, that nuclear war must be avoided, and that the cost of weapon systems keeps rising.

Advanced systems make sustaining the forces more demanding and costly, not easier, so the fourth option states the reverse of what happens. The first three options list the recognised impacts, which is why the key marks the fourth.
