Identify the correct code for the Assertion (A) and Reason (R) as given below :

Assertion (A) : Technology alone is insufficient to bring about a true Revolution in Military Affairs (RMA).
Reason (R) : An operational concept is just as important as technological invention in bringing about Revolution in Military Affairs (RMA).

Codes :

  • A.(A) is correct, but (R) is not correct
  • B.(A) is not correct, but (R) is correct
  • C.Both (A) and (R) are not correct
  • D.Both (A) and (R) are correct

Answer: D

Both (A) and (R) are correct.

Studies of military revolutions, from the German Blitzkrieg to the American precision-strike revolution, conclude that new technology alone does not transform warfare. A true RMA comes from combining technology with new operational concepts, doctrine and organisation: the Germans and the French had similar tanks in 1940, but only the Germans had the concept to exploit them.

So the assertion that technology alone is insufficient, and the reason that operational concepts are as important as invention, are both correct, and the options marking either one incorrect are ruled out.
