The Future of War, and How It Affects YOU (Multi-Domain Operations) - Smarter Every Day 211

- It's a strange feeling to share this aspect of my life. I'm taking a break to go back to school, but here's a peek into the part of my life I've kept hidden from the internet for many years. I was asked if I wanted to film my last mission and use it as an opportunity to explain "Multi-Domain Operations" to the public. After much consideration, I decided that this topic (especially the cyber-domain issue) was important and chose to help inform the public.
My mission was to participate in a missile and torpedo engagement exercise at Pacific Missile Range Facility as part of RIMPAC 2018. RIMPAC (Rim of the Pacific Exercise) is the largest naval exercise in the world. It's used to test interoperability and the ability to work as an international force.

The thought is it my efforts making videos will help educate the world as a whole. Until then if you appreciate what you've learned in this video and the effort that went in to it, please share the video.

I've kept this side of my life off the internet intentionally for 15 years. It's been strange being a dual TH-camr/Missile Tester, because obviously this side of my life feels very important and the main driver for many of my life decisions. I'm more than just a person who makes videos and puts them on TH-cam, and I feel like I'm kind of introducing you to the other side of me with this video. I thought long and hard about putting this online after I was asked if I wanted to film my last mission. I ultimately decided to post this video to let you know that Multi-Domain Operations are real.... and you're in the cyber domain. I didn't understand the full extent of what the implications of this were until I dug into it more. Over the course of the next several videos we're going to explore these cyber issues in a very real way. I hope you'll explore this with me.
SmarterEveryDay, this is pretty fascinating to me. I’m studying for my Six Sigma Green Belt, and I recognize little things in quality control such as FMEA that you’re working on. Pretty neat to see BIG real life implementations of what I’m studying.
It's always good to strive for an easier, safer, and better option, but deep down every one of us know there has got to be one last wall to break before falling. And each of us want that.
With great power, comes great responsibility. And you've been very responsible about it. And we're getting smarter about it too. And I hope every single one of us strive for a smarter and more responsible way for it.
(by us, I mean, humans.)
I envy your brain and your life. Thanks for sharing this side of your life. It must be a complicated job. We're you close enough to hear those explosions? What's the heaviest missile have you ever saw exploding? (Moab? Foab?)
As a European citizen, all I can say is : thanks for keeping us safe!
Keep up the good work Destin, I'm proud of you helping our soldiers defend our country, there's a lot of honor in that.
so if i understand this correctly, a cross domain maneuver is when you fly a helicopter into the internet
No, it's when you throw your laptop at a boat.
@sintetsu2 oh my.. what big torpedo u hav
No it's when you download an aircraft carrier.
@@Nallenbot then 3d print it
You wouldn't download the US Navy
It's amazing to revisit this interview with General Brown, and hear him talk about "Phase 0" with everything going on in the Ukraine this week. He called it play by play a year before it even happened.
This video aged well
Operation Fulcrum. I love it and I love my country for sharing this information with us.
And the part about divisiveness was on the money
By this time Russia had already done a trial run. They annexed Crimea in 2014 and it worked. Gen. Brown is talking about getting ahead of the curve though, we're behind but we'll be ahead.
There’s a reason the USA is a military powerhouse….
"The art of disgreeing well." Well said sir. I agree completely that we, as a society, would greatly benefit from focusing on our agreements with each other rather than our disagreements.
As Lord Nelson was supposed to have said to two squabbling junior officers while pointing to some distant forest of masts "the enemy is over there."
That is unless what they agree on is erroneous and would lead to great destruction down the line. I think it's wiser to say ,"Disagree without taking things too personally to a point where discussion becomes impossible." Disagreement is a way for mankind to check their logic with others it's an ability to run counter ideas against initial ones so that the rate of failure is keep low in critical circumstances. All great leader have that skill in their tool box. People who cannot disagree in a peaceful manner are just not mature, and cannot lead.
This one is bigger than a regular TH-cam video. Thanks man.
Just as Jesus said: "sometimes you just need to drop an autonomous explosive warhead on a poor Pakistani family to show them what freedom means"
Political grace is how I found the TMBH years ago. That's your video that's bigger than TH-cam and has redefined how I view and interact with others.
@@kaesebrot649 Just curious, has the US ever dropped a warhead on Pakistan?
I think you missed the point of the video, the objective is to not drop warheads on the wrong people...

This video is 3 years old at the time I'm watching it, and so much has happened in the last few years, but thank you for making this video Destin! I'm a soldier stationed in Kuwait right now and it makes me super happy knowing this channel exists and you have the influence to talk to high ranking people like that. Thanks Destin!
That sandbox is insane.. also it's declassified. Imagine what they actually use.
It was all public. I saw a geography teacher made it from scratch on TH-cam. And that video was pretty old.
@@anomasajeewani4754 That's exactly what I mean, the fact that they made it available to anybody generally means that those means are obsolete by now. In general the military is at least 10 years ahead of civilian technology.
It appears to be an overhead projector; you can see his arm block it when he's enumerating the domains. Granted, it's a pretty good overhead projector, to be displaying in very well-lit conditions. Even with enterprise-level small projectors you'll get a washed out image if the room is lit brightly enough to let a camera operate properly.
@@romxxii I think the cool bit is that the OHT can sense what depth the sand is at and change the image that it's projecting to show the hypsography.
@@workman88 this is a common belief but also commonly dead wrong. Private sector companies develop military tech. But military tech is at least 10-20 years behind what’s available to the private sector. Military tech has to be battle hardened and excessively reliable. This alone means testing has to ensue for over a decade just to make it field ready.
Virginia class submarines, the pinnacle of advanced submarine tech, are built with obsolete tech on board, like 30 year old obsolete tech. Then immediately after being commissioned are pulled into shipyard and “updated” with the “modern” tech, which is 10-20 years obsolete already.
It’s a joke and a half to be honest. Just because it’s dressed up and looks pretty doesn’t mean it’s very advanced.
This video was both fascinating and ...honestly pretty unnerving too. I'll do my best to try to preserve unity! Thanks for opening up this side of your life for us.
oh hey it's you.
AMERICA!!!!
How does this affect the meta in your opinion?
I hope there isn’t a mass extinction patch anytime soon!
Oh hey tier zoo
Destin : *plays with missiles .... *Meeh*
Also destin : *sees a laminr flow fountain...... *Ooooh my goodness...kmmkkwkwmmwkwllw*
Its more that 99.999% of his work cant be put on TH-cam, or even spoken about publicly.
@@Gunbudder When you say his, as in one person, makes your assessment at claim of 99.999% highly unlikely, or rather closer to impossible. Your position wherein sharing with "checks and balances" that make for sources being more protected by numbers knowing ...would be insane to have such an asset in one person or even place of, let's say, storage on a disk...etc. "Hi, how are you?" and "Here is how I look so come kidnap me" concept should also be easily dismissed by understanding the "two key" concept in a sub. ...the football holder in regards to nuclear warfare intelligence...things like this.
Knowing broad subject is this video and explanation of M.D.O. ...but there are specially trained people that can be part of the connectivity spoken about in case large battlefields or theaters with specialty find the need for emergency training or handling...but if those theaters or systems are rendered useless...you get the picture...it's even why we see not yet tested technologies, like new jets and the like, immediately before used on large theater operations.
It's a good show... and interesting. Good questioning and subjects of interest.
@@misterwonderful8628 Bro, it seems like you understand the video pretty well, but you really need to work on getting the thoughts out of your head. Because what you wrote is largely incomprehensible.
This brings the next logical step... applying laminar flow physics to explosives to maximize predictability and efficiency.
"Political Grace." So profound, yet in such short supply. Thank you Destin for wielding your power gracefully.
Absolutely, hopefully more people in America learn its importance
Your description of the cyber domain barely scratches the surface of how the domain is fully weaponized. But the psyops portion of what the cyber domain is being used for is spot on.
Great video.
I think Destin is now officially the most informative and friendly weapon in the United State's arsenal at this time.
@Bear Arms Don't think that matters. Just because Mr. Browning is no longer involved with the Browning company in any way invalidates the effectiveness and badassery of the BMG 50 cal.

Yup
Political Grace, so we'll stated!
This video is more important today than when you created it. Our greatest threat is probably the division that is increasing our nation ideologically. Thank you for the reminder that our strength stands in unity.
Let us all live the golden rule.
Dude, I was enthralled throughout every second of this video. Also, your
badassness just increased to 11.
I appreciate the honesty, I really do. "Is this video a weapon?" "Yes"
That is what I thought why did this 4 star general offer all of this content to be made public? Prior to him saying it was a weapon, within itself.
My first thought was recruitment. However I think there might be a different aspect to it that maybe we don't know or understand fully. Yet.....
@@richellepina1 A large problem the US Military has is they are largely divorced from your average American. Go back 50 years and everyone was related to or knew someone in the services. It's doing a lot of harm to recruitment numbers, manpower--so few people know there's more to the services than people carrying rifles, driving tanks, flying aircraft, or sailing boats.
Well, watching this video kind of makes you less likely to attack USA. So it would represent a defensive cyber weapon.
MEEKNESS ... TIS GODS GREATEST WEAPON AGAINST PLUNDERERS !!
Honesty that is pretty rare to be honest.
Thank you, Destin and General Brown. I just found this video now -- a video before its time in more ways than the title, and never more relevant than the past year, which is a year after you posted it. This changes everything!
This is one of the most important video that I’ve ever seen. It will be exhilarating to see how you show the world how to be smarter every day. I need think about this a lot more. That you shared what has been important and with literally different perspectives -well it is an honor to learn and a blessing to laugh.

The end of this video is a good reminder that being connected isn't the same thing as being unified. Technology can connect us but it takes concerted effort to be unified. Don't let social entropy get ya! -Dan
This is very true. We are dividing ourselves in this country and don't think for a minute our enemies aren't playing the card we have given them. We have the right as Americans to disagree but we must not divide.
Which almost makes you wonder if it would make sense for the military to provide social ettiquete / unification training as defense measure... I suppose that's generally what propaganda is, but I'm imagining this at an even more abstract level, i.e. rather than building unification on a single issue like "how scary communism is", more general "here's how to work with your neighbor even if you disagree" - though if it's too abstract I suppose it could be used by other nations against us...
Empower the public. Sheep no more.
Putin said he didn't do it, the CIA says he did. Lets side with Putin. That's division and no one can say they support America AND trump one or the other.
This may be more interesting now than when you first released it. Very cool
You hit the nail on the head with "Division" back in 2019-
"If we extend patience and political grace not just to those people we like, but also to those with whom we disagree, these maneuvers in the cyber domain, meant to divide us, simply will not work." I love it. That's a great quote
Yes! We need to remeber we are Americans 1ST and anything else second.
@@SLCtica tbh I'd like to extend your American unity by reminding you that no matter where we're born or what we look like, we're all humans and all on Earth
@@597das I like that sentiment it reminds me of the saying, "at the end of the game the pawn and the king go in the same box" while that is all well and good, my concern is that as Americans we are deeply divided due to politics and I think we need to unify again.
JamieFlix what’s he time stamp on that quote
Oklahoma Airsoft By Callsign Zilla 27:43 at the very end
I've said for several years that what we are lacking today is the ability to disagree with one another...now we have a name for it..."Political Grace, the art of disagreeing well." THAT is gold! And I love the choice of the word grace (not getting what you do deserve). So often we are willing to write off someone's opinion because we judge it to be incorrect, and lately, we've started extending the write off to the individual as well. Maybe instead of asking "what's wrong with that person?" we could ask, "how can I disagree well with that person?"
Thanks for an obviously very personal message, Destin. I enjoy all your videos and appreciate the work you put into them...but this may be my new favorite! (FWIW, my prior fav was lessons learned from interviewing the president...hhmmm...that one was also about disagreeing well...)
But Aumann's agreement theorem says that we can't be rational and agree to disagree!
Yes! The video about interviewing the president introduced me the idea of how humans act very similarly to mathematical control systems and how important a negative feedback loop is to promote personal growth.
I have subsequently mentioned this theory in all my interviews when questioned about how I respond to feedback (I also happen to work in the aerospace engineering field) and the interviewers have been blown away every time. Pretty sure it's the reason I get the jobs!
So thanks Destin!
Hey @@richardstrum6606, awesome point! I'm familiar with Aumann's argument and at least as far as I understand it, it applies to single variable interpretations. Destin's point at the outset was that each of our worldviews is influenced by our perspective, kind of like the three blind men describing the elephant. Each of them was correct considering the limited perspective they had, yet all of them were incorrect when considering the full picture.
So if we can agree that, given the full picture we should both come to the same conclusion, then maybe our take away should be that when we are in disagreement I should carefully consider both sides of the argument to ensure I'm seeing the full picture. A great way to practice that is to argue for something you disagree with, thus forcing you into more fully examining why someone would see things from a perspective different than your own.
Hey @@MohammadTaher, yep, I quote and link to that video a lot! It's been my fav since it first came out!
@@EdwinWiles No disagreement here! My reply was tongue in cheek because the theorem's assumptions don't apply very well to real life, and it has become a tad cliche to bring it up. Besides, it only applies to factual disputes, not disputes over values, which are subjective and the substance of a lot of political arguments.
Destin, you are one of the most intellectual persons I have come across on the vast expanse of the internet. As a non-American, I find it hard to believe that people like you are not more in charge of the actual decisions that your country makes. You have made me smarter with each of your videos that I consume. You make me want to be a better person, and use my brain, knowledge, experience and passion to improve the existence of the human race. Keep it going brother!!!
Man this video still holds so much relevance today. Seeing internet campaigns from Israel/Palestine and Russia/Ukraine conflicts has my head in a spin. The cyber domain has become a HUGE battleground, even amongst civilians. It’s all people pointing fingers and saying “no, THEYRE the bad guy”

I mean Russia has an army of trolls on social media messing things up. I’d rather see America (and the world at large) have some defenses up, and greater awareness of the forces steering current events. So making a video such as this is hardly hypocritical... I mean, if someone’s trying to meddle in your affairs, you fight back.

This video is impressive. I saw it the day when it was released and I found it illuminating.
The cyber and human domains (Social Networking Services, fake news, polarization, social tensions, the social, political and economic destabilization...) is becoming more and more obvious.
Year and a half after it's clear that the topics in this video are more important than ever. The whole world is under an invisible war in the cyber and human domains.
looking back at this video you nailed the outro of this video. as a canadian i will say to you im glad you were in the service you were doing what you did saved lives. but the cyber division and social media creating division is so real and its incredible that the difference from 2019 to 2022 is insane.

Isn't it crazy to see how, two years later, these principles have been acted upon beautifully by our adversaries, and we lay victim to the very concepts you and the general discussed!
They probably knew that adversaries already had this knowledge of multi-domain operations. That’s why they decided to let destin share this knowledge with us, the people.
I'm 3yrs late watching this video Destin however, it has impressed the heck out of me 👍. That warfare has progressed to this level of complexity indicates to me (as an USAF veteran) that warfare is mostly psychological and literally always has been. Thank you for sharing this.

very true and real. Our internet is constantly under attack from constantly growing new sources. It works well even under attack, so most people don't even consider we're under attack.
weve been at conflict for at least 4 years now and sadly a lot of americans are choosing the wrong side

Wake up America, the MIC "DEEP STATE" has been using IIA deception on Americans ever since Obama took office? Do some research and you will find this all started way back during the Regan administration when the military decided it would be an awesome idea to create a massive surveillance system of American citizens. There was the usual Congressional hearings decrying this blatant attempt against American privacy so they held fake hearings and pretended the projects were dismantled. Instead they simply moved the projects to civilian control managed by retired military personnel thus spawning Google & Facebook and a host of other "Social Apps" we now depend on for as our PUBLIC FORUM. Do not for a minute think that the current capabilities of NSA and other massive covert and overt surveillance systems are under control by Congress. We are at a major crossroad in our Republic? On one side we have the DEEP STATE which has completely corrupted every government agency you can think of. On the other side are the OUTSIDERS like POTUS who is trying to at least slow it down until he can make the necessary changes to undo some of the damage. However I think eventually it will all end when the brainwashed current K12 generation with Marxist Communist ideology takes the reins of power. At that point we can assume the complete destruction of our Republic will be irreversable...
man this is like finding out your dad is James Bond
I didnt know my father was an aerospace engineer with a Top Secret Clearance with Lockheed Martin (Now Retired) until I was 17 years old. Now I have since learned about his projects.
I'm starting to doubt he is actually part of a deep cia conspiracy. I used to love him. Now my trust issues became even worse.

That sounds like paranoia to me.
"Political grace. Basically, the art of disagreeing well. This is the ultimate countermeasure..." Well said, sir. I couldn't agree with you more.
It somehow sounds reassuring and calming if you hear a high ranking military not about how to fight a battle, but first and foremost how to avoid one. And how being prepared to fight one is part of that. I think that is an aspect very often overlooked by those outside the military.
Of course it would be nicer if no such threatening gestures and building imposing images of own strength would be needed to just get along well, but it seems that would be almost against the human nature.
As a prior service Marine and now a civ in the military, still serving the United States, I feel like this kind of stuff needs to be put out more. I know alot of the individuals i work with that would be more motivated if it actually felt like they were all apart of the fight and defense of this great country, regardless if you put cammies or a collared shirt on in the morning. Being in the office and checking emails is a far cry from where i was before, but for 80% of the ppl i work with, there is always this separation. I remember when the SgtMaj came in earlier this year and said we are all apart of the defense of this county and of this world. It doesn't matter your rank, branch, or job. We're all apart of the bigger picture and we're all making a difference.
I love this video, definitely my favorite so far.
There are only 41 full generals active and he’s one of 14 in the Army. Guy is kind of a big deal.
meh just a 4 star, gimme a 5 star general
@@iwantitpaintedblack Call me when he interviews a Michelin star general.
4 Star Generals are the highest meaningful generals there are. A 5 star General is technically a rank, but it's more like a job than an actual change in authority. Like the "difference" between a First Sergeant and an E-7/8/9. I mean, I guess there IS some change in authority, maybe the comparison to a (AF) Chief Master Sergeant and a Command Chief Master Sergeant is more appropriate.
@ckatm397 10/10, that is a perfect response. Michelin star quality snark right there.
Worthy of note: That General with "merely" 4 stars has his own wikipedia article. I don't think I ever heard of, or met a 4 Star that didn't, and the metric I used while I was active to discern the level of impressiveness of Colonels and 1 stars and 2 stars, is whether or not that particular officer had a wiki article. If they do, then they've had a large enough impact to merit one.
iwantitpaintedblack the rank of 5 star general was only created for World War II and the tank was officially retired in 1981. There are no 5 stars left

Absolutely fantastic video Destin. And General Brown did a phenomenal job teaching and explaining such critical and complex strategies.
Thank you both for your service to our nation, citizens, and allies around the globe.
What you said in the closing of this video might be the most important thing of our time.
This dude literally has the ideal job and we didn't even know
Ideal is a subjective term.
We invented fictitious weapons of mass destruction to justify an unnecessary war that has resulted in the deaths of millions of innocent people.
literally my dream job but im not smart enough in physics and math
My cousin does the same cool stuff. All this. I chose the wrong degree and career path.
what he does is not so easy. Its talent makes this looks "easy". Like a great musician or football player. You need talent.
27 minutes mark and a year later we couldn’t have guessed how important a video like this would be. Division is being pushed but we need the unity and we can fight back
China is the enemy.
October '20 and the politicians brag about "working across the aisle". Then they will vote along party lines.
How can you tell when they're lying?
They say something.
true
I think the general shows great wisdom by realizing that the human component is the most crucial in any event, even war.
I just hope that the world keeps changing in a direction where armed conflict is no longer necessary as well as the competition for resources....
Ultimately every problem's solution lies in the personal transformation of each individual, where one trades fear, anger and ignorance, for creativity, understanding and empathy.
Great video btw! Thank you!
This is genuinely one of the most fascinating and deep videos I've ever seen in my life.
Perhaps--no, without a doubt--the most important video I have watched in a very long time. Particularly the last few minutes. Political grace, yes, we all need to get Smarter Every Day.
Thank you.
@Bobby Fisher The lack of "Political Grace", as described so eloquently by Destin in this video, is precisely the most important issue facing Americans today. If we go on as we have been, attacking each other simply for stating a point of view, without reasoned discourse and at least a minimum of mutual respect--which, sadly, you have demonstrated so vividly--then the social contract will be broken and civil strife, if not civil war, will be the outcome. This is just my opinion. I have others, but political grace prevents me from airing them here.
Robert Ruork don't listen to that negativity. He doesn't have a clue.

I’m enrolled on a course called War and Society and I’m going to use this video as inspiration for my dissertation!
It would be a secondary source. they did not conduct the research.
Super relevant in regards to this week. Especially around the 14:20 time stamp!
So true about empowered leaders. I participated in a chemical plant start-up in China. In China, no one can do anything until told to do so by the boss... It is SO engrained, that they wouldn't even CONSIDER taking independent action for fear of personal reprisal. (I tried, unsuccessfully to make that happen on some occasions). Meanwhile, our American/Canadian (Western) team was frustrated because we couldn't be efficient by being able to make the decisions we knew were needed. We operated independent of our Bosses, but reported to them on our progress and challenges, and what our plan of actions were and got periodic input from our bosses as needed. We also coordinated with our client Chinese local leaders, explaining our plans and updating on progress as they requested. We did have a good working relationship, but at times could be stressed because if these differences.
The stability and accuracy of that mini gun is amazing!
And did anyone see that bullet from the Bradley doing a loop after ricocheting off the ground??!
That tank might need a tune up though. It sounded off key...
Rowe Magnon Lol, i was like, “Ooh, a loopdey-loop!”
That's not the actual bullet, but the phosphorus tail of a tracer round breaking off. Tracers tend to light everything around on fire too with all the bits of burning phosphorus flying around.

Unity the one concept no great nation in history managed to maintain.
Might be united for sometime, but in the end, they always end up divided.
If only the slaves had debated their masters into freeing them, we could have avoided the Civil War. Right? When two opposing interests want opposite things, debate is a distraction. Go respectfully debate your boss when it's easier for him to replace you than give you a raise. We don't all want what's best for each other. Sometimes the game is zero-sum, and one side is good, and one side is bad, and the matter is solved not by debate but by raw power and leverage. We have militaries for this very reason, but when the working class at home wants something suddenly all we hear is "unity," "dialog," "civility."
@@kevinmathewson4272 debate is infective ig at least one side is not open to the other sides perspective and information, that is a social issue that is typically best resolved through social means
This was incredibly enlightening. Thank you, Dustin! Never stop helping me and other get smarter (every day).
Watching this in 2021 makes this even more evident to the eyes of the public.
He has the perfect US General look and voice.
That look and voice is a WeApPon! wink wink!
truth be told, nothing against this 4 star general as i know nothing of him personally, but a lot of the prominent generals and leaders in the military are not the best leaders, they simply LOOK like the best leaders.. but they themselves dont do the thinking, they just relay it.. there just figureheads.. but that is needed as well, because face it.. with the human psyche, would a strong, youthful soldier follow the order of a strong looking, battle scarred leader as well as a physically weak, squirly looking guy? sadly, no, even if that squirly looking guy is a military genius. (im not saying the soldier wouldnt follow the order from the squirly guy, im saying he wouldnt follow it with the same level of confidence, and that would alter the effectiveness of the soldier)
Arrogant,
that word came to my mind when I was listening to him.
He has the same persona of every general I have ever encountered. I have met a bunch of colonels who had different personalities, but, it seems, there is a filter going up to the general ranks that selects for these characters.
@@Snuschips I'm inclined to agree. Arrogance is the last thing you'd want in your military generals, it would only lead to overconfidence and underestimation of potential threats.
19:33 is the best moment I’ve seen on the internet regarding leadership. Ever.
The true measure of a leader is not how they can accomplish a task laid out before them with instructions, but instead that they can make a desired outcome happen, given the tools and training they have.
Absolutely
I love how candidly, thoroughly, and delicately you approach your content
Okay…. I’m watching this currently and the fact that he saw what was happening in Ukraine and Russia OVER 3 YEARS AGO! Blows my mind! This is just the top of the iceberg of what our armed forces truly know. It’s like he’s predicting the future. Makes another reason once again why I’m proud to be an American (around 15:04 if you’re curious yourself)
I am Ukrainian. We all knew that the war would happen at some point. We hate russia not since 2014, but a lot earlier times. I knew the exact month of the invasion a year before it happened. The UA intelligence knew what would happen. Now I see how US intelligence helps us and this is awesome. Ukrainians will always be thankful to the US. Thank you
@@ostapstad Slava Russia
You people are unbelievably brainwashed
Before 21:27 I was thinking to myself that the only reason the General would even consider sharing this sort of information, is purely to display the power of our military. Just the way he speaks you can tell how he's always ahead of the curve and reaching out to Destin just proves that fact. Bravo.
Bro I was just coming here to say this! He wants to show off the new flexibility of our military.
@Data Lol the US has won literally dozens of wars, I think maybe almost a hundred (most of them the US defending themselves in it's infancy) despite being so young. The USA and it's people naturally are easily the most powerful nation in history.
Dude. Our military surpasses most if not all, and thats being very pessimistic. To have the knowledge that these domains exist does not matter when opposing countries dont have the money and/or ability to fight wars in other domains.
The few countries that are knowledgeable and rich enough are probably intelligent enough to rely on diplomacy.

Narrator: "War, War never ch--

@Akin Khoo It's just a fallout reference bro
Less people are dying? Maybe compared to world wars. But we still invade countries all the time to murder hundreds of thousands at minimum and ruin countless lives.
If we kill less it is only so more of the workforce survives to be exploited by an imperialist, capitalist society.
The idea of "cyberwarfare" and, as you said, machine casualties, only distracts from the very real human cost of war. Not to say that you aren't right, but it also leaves a false impression of human casualties not being as much of an issue.
Leonardo Ribas "we're so darn good, nobody can match us"
@@a1b2c3z44 If only it actually worked that way. Instead, everyone else will try to match the US.
@Akin Khoo He means he just intended it as an amusing joke. I don't think he was looking for anyone shift the lighthearted joke into serious discussion. There's plenty of it in other comments.
Pro-active intentional unity. Unity through diversity. Be kind. Listen. Political grace; the art of disagreeing well. So, At this point, I have to say how deeply grateful I am to you and General Brown for giving us this glimpse and hope. Blessings on you, your family, and your work.
the last three minutes of this video are a powerful and up to date recap of current situations and should be shown to every American.
I'm beyond my ability to express how cool and educational this piece of "video weaponry" has turned out to be! Total respect to the wisdom of the seasoned army general and thanks a bunch to Destin for the unique opportunity to peek into a part of the "Big Boys" game! Keep fighting the good fight!

@Jimmy Rustle No need to enlist, it wouldn't be any different practically anyway. Just pick a cause you're passionate about and shitpost away in a manner that furthers said cause.

This is one very very inspiring video my friend. Thank you for bringing this incredible content. Greetings from one of one of those international allies.
A gut wrenching watch. I hope everyone in positions of military power stay acutely aware that their role, while necessary, would not exist in a perfect world. The powers becoming freshly available through cyber warfare can be just as damaging and deadly as traditional weapons, and abuse is easier to conceal than ever. Handle with care.
Sometimes I think we are headed for a very strange science fiction future.

We also see that you take your job very seriously.... when your job is shooting rockets , tanks and doing maneuvers in jets. No smile. Very cool destin. Thank you for your service.
Thank you for producing this. Mostly, thank you for advocating civility and the ability to agree to disagree. You are right, if we cannot manage to allow opposing views without becoming hostile we will be torn apart and destroy ourselves.

Destin, I've been a faithful subscriber for many years but I've never commented on a video before. I believe you make a very good point about the potential and real threat of disunity through the internet domain. Therefore I want to reach out in agreement that grace and unity as Americans should transcend our disagreements! I thoroughly enjoyed this video and hope we all do our part to extend grace to others. Keep fighting the good fight brother!
thanks Jaegarharper, I am hoping for a day where we can post an honest opinion online without kneejerk hatred being spewed our way. For instance, pertinent to this video, IMO, the US overspends on military and could divert some of the more ridiculous spending towards fossil fuel independence. This would defuse some conflicts as well.
@@kenpevahouse2154 I once sat on a flight next to a retired nuclear researcher with Lawrence Livermore Labs. I was headed to San Francisco for a training course. At the time, 90 billion had just been approved for Iraq military expenditure for one year, roughly a year after the invasion. When I mentioned this idea of spending on research such as fusion being a better choice than Iraq, her response was "you're going to like it in California", and we never spoke any further.

I wanna see more of this magical projector sand pit!
scatterfull They are actually quite boring. It‘s just measuring what level the sand is in a certain spot and then project a certain color onto that spot. It‘s nice, but doesn‘t really have any military application in that state.
Go to any science fare for children, you can find them there quite often.
You actually have to shape the battlefield in the sand- the sand is scanned - then the projector is outlining the battlefield with tactical markers, no magic involved :/
A lot of children's museums have them. Doseum in San Antonio has one. It's for teaching about water flow and terrain.
scatterfull it's literally just a xbox connect on a small computer with a projector

Well, this video has aged like a fine wine. Thanks for being incredible, Destin. You're Salt and Light in these dark times.
During the Vietnam War, I was a junior officer (Captain) in US Army Special Forces ("Green Berets" in their early years). I was very well trained, at no small expense to the US Army. That was 50 years ago, and our understanding of our mission was similar to what Gen Brown was saying - because of my job in Vietnam, usually I was given a specific mission, and the information, tools, troops and time that I needed to do it, then told to go do it and rarely told how to do it, unless it involved very complex coordination. We usually succeeded because of this freedom to operate. This was why I enjoyed what I was doing - I (usually) had maximum autonomy with minimum command interference - even as a relatively junior commander, and we operated as a team. I also had the advantage of having some of the best soldiers in the US Army under my command. We had access to other forces - US and Allied air, sea and not so much cyber, but certainly electronics, and of course the human domain. The Space domain came later. We worked as a multidomain team, but it was only after the Vietnam War, and several mission failures which taught the US defense establishment the need for a more cohesive force structure, linked fully, that our military began to develop as Gen Brown described as the current force structure. I did not make the Army my career, but the experience helped shape my life in my later profession. This was a very interesting video - Thanks for doing it!
