U.S.
competitors
pursuing
meaningful
revision
or
rejection
of
the
current
U.S.-led
status
quo
are
employing
a
host
of
hybrid
methods
to
advance
and
secure
interests
contrary
to
those
of
the
United
States.
These
challengers
employ
unique
combinations
of
influence,
intimidation,
coercion,
and
aggression
to
incrementally
crowd
out
effective
resistance,
establish
local
or
regional
advantage,
and
manipulate
risk
perceptions
in
their
favor.
So
far,
the
United
States
has
not
come
up
with
a
coherent
countervailing
approach.
It
is
in
this
“gray
zone”—the
awkward
and
uncomfortable
space
between
traditional
conceptions
of
war
and
peace—where
the
United
States
and
its
defense
enterprise
face
systemic
challenges
to
U.S.
position
and
authority.
Gray
zone
competition
and
conflict
present
fundamental
challenges
to
U.S.
and
partner
security
and,
consequently,
should
be
important
pacers
for
U.S.
defense
strategy.
