Description |
StrategyPage
provides quick, easy access to what is going on
in military affairs. StrategyPage cover armed forces
world wide, as well as up to date reporting on wars
and hotspots wherever they may be. All the news
you need, written so that it fits into the time
you have for it. The information is organized logically,
with categories for different weapons systems (armor,
artillery, naval aviation, etc.). We also cover
the software of war, often ignored items like leadership,
peacetime operations, intelligence, information
warfare and the like. And we keep the information
online, with archives going back to the early 1980s.
A search capability gives you quick access to whatever
you need. We put it all in context with military
history, maps, country background and useful links.

StrategyPage
makes use of a wide variety of news and
information sources. Even in this age
of the internet wire services remain the
frontline of reporting. Reuters, AP, and
UPI are key sources for breaking news.
StrategyPage also draws on several web-based
sources. For example, the Institute for
War and Peace Reporting (IWPR)does a bang
up job on the Balkans. Radio Free Europe's
(RFE) various web updates (which cover
stories RFE broadcasts) do the same for
eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union.
The Economist definitely leads the news
magazines on quality of international
coverage.
StrategyPage mines the "defense and
military" press, Janes, Army, Parameters,
Armed Forces Journal - that list goes
on to include several nation-specific
publications from non-NATO states. When
it comes to air and missile tech, Aviation
Week is still Aviation Leak. The Wall
Street Journal, New York Times, The Sunday
London Times, and other major international
newspapers occasionally provide good leads
on military issues. The Washington Times
military reporting is very useful, as
is the Stars and Stripes. The Miami Herald's
beat is the Caribbean and South America.
The South China Morning Post is a window
on China. The "information net"
can draw even finer. For example, The
San Antonio-Express News is a regional
U.S. newspaper particularly valuable for
coverage of Mexico and Central America.
The proliferation of websites -from terrorist
groups to NGOs to news networks- offers
the analyst a wealth of information. Even
when the info is contradictory it can
still be a useful guide to evaluating
aims and strategies of participants in
conflicts. Finally, there's "our
gang." Over the years we have assembled
an interesting cadre of friends and acquaintances.
A number of them have military or foreign
service experience. Many of these people
started out as wargamers- an excellent
background for getting a handle on a developing
crisis. These sources are quick with advice
and quick with critique. They've also
proven to be reliable. When they miss,
they don't miss by much. And with the
proliferation of internet access and cell
phones, we often get reports from our
gang while the bullets are still flying.
