Concept Development and Experimentation (CD&E) is a framework of thinking within developing and understanding Mountain Warfare and related capabilities. NATO Warfighting Capstone Concept and NATO Concept for Deterrence and Defense provides essential guidance on current and future character of competition and concept development, aligning with approved NATO policies and doctrine while incorporating best practices derived from contemporary wars and CD&E activities. The future operating environment analysis is to guide the future forces design, development and disruptive innovation of the future force. Though primarily focused on Alliance activities in the mountain warfare domain significant effort has been made to ensure the methodology’s applicability across a broad spectrum of mountain warfare stakeholders, enhancing interoperability and operational effectiveness in challenging terrain.
