On March 14, Forward Defense nonresident senior fellow Kyle Atwell hosted Dr. Alexandra Chinchilla and Lieutenant General (ret.) Mark Hertling for an episode of the Irregular Warfare Podcast. This episode, titled “Ukraine’s Hidden Front: The Strategic Impact of Resistance Operations,” examines the military implications of Ukrainian resistance efforts, the role of technology in the war, cooperation between special operations and conventional forces, and what lessons can be applied to future conflict.

Forward Defense leads the Atlantic Council’s US and global defense programming, developing actionable recommendations for the United States and its allies and partners to compete, innovate, and navigate the rapidly evolving character of warfare. Through its work on US defense policy and force design, the military applications of advanced technology, space security, strategic deterrence, and defense industrial revitalization, it informs the strategies, policies, and capabilities that the United States will need to deter, and, if necessary, prevail in major-power conflict.
