    Conclusion
    The21st centuryhasbrought
    significantnew developments in
    warfare. Technological
    development,bothintuitively
    andintentionally, led to upgrades in
    military operations andtactics.
    However, theconcept of wardidnot change.
    Thequestionis what kind ofnew
    technologies and tools
    areutilizedincurrent warfare,
    andhow these
    changeshavealteredtheconvention
    al thinking of aninvasioncampaign.
