Journal  a151(623), Jan-Mar, 2021: p.80-92 aThe issue of jointmanship in the Indian Armed Forces assumed greater salience with Revolution in Military Affairs (RMA) and enhanced threats including collusive ones. Although unanimously agreed as a necessity, the perceptions about jointmanship vary across the Services. Analysis of jointmanship exhibited during wars, conflicts and major operations reveals a mixed bag — mainly divergent at the military strategic level yet reasonably good coherence, coordination and execution at the tactical level. To jointly outfight the enemy, the article infers the need of establishing sound Civil-Military Relations (CMR), realistic threat assessment, enhancing joint training, jointly developing capabilities, and rejuvenating existing mechanisms, especially at the strategic level. Importantly, it highlights the difference good leadership and a robust Professional Military Education (PME) makes in enhancing jointness, both in peace and war. – Reproduced  aJointmanship, Indian armed forces, Revolution in Military Affairs (RMA)929089 aU.S.I.
