A major factor in how future wars play-out is the use of robotics and artificial intelligence. I argued that these factors do tilt toward attrition, as you mentioned, in my essays “Robot War Number One” and “Robot Combat: the Logistics of Ballistics”, google-able. The main point is that this attrition will not happen as a static battlefront with masses of people. Instead, it will have depth into foe’s heartland, and it will be dispersed. Yet, attrition all the same.
