Abstract

In this article, the author discusses the impact of the fourth Arab-Israeli war, which took place in October 1973, on American military doctrine. At that time, the US Army was in the transformation period after the defeat in Vietnam as well as in the proces of establishing an all-volunteer army. The Yom Kippur War was analysed from every possible angle by numerous American research teams, including top-tier generals, during their visits in Israel. The Arab-Israel conflict happened in the right time for the US Army, enabling it to proceed with radical doctrinal reform as well as a procurement programme. Due to the time consuming process of creating new military equipment, only second iteration of the US Army doctrine, i.e. AirLand Battle, fully implemented the conclusions stemming from the Yom Kippur War.
