Fighting ability

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Fightability describes the competitiveness of an internal order in a violent conflict.

Combat ability consists of the skills orientation, reconnaissance , planning, action and reaction as well as communication. In armed conflict , the primary military goal is to reduce the opponent's ability to fight to such an extent that he is no longer able to carry out temporally and spatially coherent acts and to continue the fight or combat action . This is achieved through the destruction of soldiers, weapons, supplies , communication and command structures. Fighting ability and struggle are products of strength which only he is capable of who fulfills the demands of the spirit.
