Do you belive that it is possible for a war in which there are similar tactics to world war 2 to happen?

Answer 1

Yes of course! the main tacic in ww2 and any other was/is to kill as many people as poss,


Human race:NIL, Crows:5MILLION

Answer 2

As far as the blitzkreig tactics of the Germans, yes, the same basic formula is still used today(accounting for technology upgrades).

The Naval aspect of "unsinkable" battleships, no, the aircraft carrier proved it's importance, and hence is still the main fleet weapon today.

But sadly, the next World War will be the last one, since some clown will make it nuclear, hence killing all of us. The worst thing to ever happen was the successful nuke test in New Mexico. It will ensure all of our deaths. I just hope I get vaporized instantly, I don't want radiation poisoning and a slow death.

Answer 3

In Desert Storm the overall commander used tactics that were used in WW2. Over many years in battle. the British Generals have used tactics from battles many years back. In North Africs in WW2, General Montgomery used tactics from the Greek wars which were fought a thousand years ago to lead Rommel into a trap. Even tactics from The Zulu wars have been used by generals, the "Bulls Horn" being one of them.

Answer 4

Military leaders usually refer back to previous wars in order to get a handle on the situation facing them in their present conflict.

The entire US lead attack to liberate Kuwait was largely based upon the same tactics used in Normandy1944. What the US Army did was to deploy a small force in a frontal attack, while at the same time sending it's major regiments around the back to come from behind the enemy.

Wham! A word for word, round for round, repetition of US Army tactics from Omaha Beach on into Normandy.

If there's no suitable example in say WW2 then military leaders, especially those of the US-Army will often refer back to the tactics of the Roman Army - something they learn about at West Point so I am told.

Answer 5

Sure. Basic tactics don't really change that much. Which is why we still study the great generals of the past. That being said, technology has a huge impact on how battles are fought. But tactical warfare is still basically about movement and fire power.

Answer 6

Yes, definitely. The tactics used were conventional, and gurrilla warfare. All of this happens today, even in WWII there were suicide pilots both Japanese and Germans. So I mean the game is and always will be the same, the players just change.

Answer 7

Battle planners study the tactics of all military leaders including ancient ones like Alexander the great. obviously the tactics have to be revised to suit modern times, but if it works it works.

Answer 8

In broader terms, sure. WW2 was about a bunch of countries rallying to stop a couple more and to right some grave misjustices. This happens all the time. It is why we have the UN...if you mess with one member of the UN, you mess with all members of the UN, and the members of the UN are committed to being peaceful with each other.

In other ways, no...mainly due to things like technology and intelligence. We won't fight the same ways we did in WW2 simply because there is different machinery, different weaponry, different electronics, and more efficient ways to travel.

Answer 9

Yes. Tactics and strategies are used and reused by all combatants throughout the course of any war.

Answer 10

Yes if it is between major countries/powers and nuclear weapons are not used it will most likely be fought that way. The odds of the major powers going to war though are slight so it is unlikely.

Answer 11

So, what were the tactic in World War II ? There were many different theatres.
