– 1st generation: tactics of line and column; which developed in the age of the smoothbore musket.

– 2nd generation: tactics of linear fire and movement, with reliance on indirect fire.

– 3rd generation: tactics of infiltration to byp-ss and collapse the enemy’s combat forces rather than seeking to close with and destroy them; and defense in depth.

3. lawfare e.g. international “law”
4. cyber warfare e.g. hacking an enemy’s computer networks
china is using fourth generation warfare when it launches thousands of cyber attacks against america’s department of defense networks on a daily basis.
