Abstract
Hybrid warfare has almost become new orthodoxy in the defense community. The term is regarded as a new phenomenon that allegedly interprets the characteristics of contemporary warfare. Furthermore, within the international community, ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict is almost unanimously referred to as a model for hybrid warfare. However, hybrid warfare as a term itself or the referring Russia’s war to a model for hybrid warfare might lead analysts, defense planners, and policymakers down an unhelpful path. There is a risk of rediscovering old ideas in the efforts of defining the parameters of modern warfare, which might fall short of expectations.
