Logistic Warfare

Logistic warfare during the Industrial Age refers to the crucial role of supply chains and support systems in military effectiveness. Unlike earlier conflicts that focused primarily on battlefield tactics, Industrial Age warfare emphasized the management of resources such as food, ammunition, transportation, and medical supplies. Successful armies relied on well-organized logistics to ensure troops were equipped and capable of sustained operations. This approach transformed military strategy, as the ability to move and supply forces became as important as traditional combat skills, ultimately determining the outcome of battles and wars.
