  • Vision of the Army’, with Which the Royal Netherlands Army (RNLA) Steps Into the Future
    Security through foresight The Royal Netherlands Army vision for the future Foreword Before you lies the ‘Vision of the Army’, with which the Royal Netherlands Army (RNLA) steps into the future. It has been written for everyone concerned with our security and is intended to promote dialogue about the future of our security apparatus. The world around us is changing at a rapid pace and that has consequences for the RNLA too. Take technological developments, for example, as a result of which land operations will fundamentally change, or the increasing interconnection between national and international security. Meanwhile, new threats are emerging and old threats are resurfacing. The protection of our territory and that of our NATO allies, for example, has faded into the background over the years. In recent years, however, the importance of this task has once again increased. Unlike our recent missions, our participation in this task is not optional. The RNLA must be there if needed. If it is to continue to play a decisive role in the future, the RNLA must be able to keep pace with the speed and unpredictability of change. It is not only the security situation that is volatile. Climate change, energy scarcity, demographic trends and economic stability all contribute to the unpredictability of the future. All of this has far- reaching consequences for our organisation and the manner in which we work. If the RNLA is to continue protecting what is dear to us all, we will have to make some fundamental changes. In the 2018 Defence White Paper, the impetus was given for the broad lines of development of the Netherlands armed forces.

The cover image of this edition of NL-ARMS is a photograph of a fragment of the uni- que ‘eye tiles’, discovered during a restoration of the Castle of Breda, the home of the RNLMA. They are thought to have constituted the entire floor space of the Grand North Gallery in the Palace of Henry III (1483-1538). They are attributed to the famous Antwerp artist Guido de Savino (?-1541). The eyes are believed to symbolize vigilance and just government.

  • The Netherlands
    Military doctrine comprises fundamental principles which armed forces use to direct their actions. Over the past few years, the need for an integrated defence doctrine has increased. In its fi nal report in April 2002, for example, the advisory committee on the introduction of a joint high commander stated that joint operations were fast becoming the norm and that close, internal cooperation in such operations was so vital that an overarching doctrine was required. The Netherlands Defence Doctrine (NDD) serves as a ‘doctrinal basis’ from which various doctrine publications, for instance for the individual Services, will be drawn and developed. In order to meet this recognised need, it was proposed that doctrine be developed for all the main tasks of the Defence Ministry, using the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation (NATO) doctrine as a basis. This NDD fi lls the gap between Service-specifi c doctrine and defence policy. Netherlands DefenceDoctrine The usual procedure is that Service doctrine is drawn from national Netherlands defence doctrine. The situation in the Netherlands has until now been different. There was no defence doctrine, but the Services had Defence nonetheless developed their own doctrine. Because of this situation, a signifi cant part of the contents of the NDD has been taken from the Doctrine existing doctrine publications of the various Services, underpinned by a strategic foundation from current policy documents from the Ministry of Defence. The distinction between the policy documents and the various doctrine publications lies particularly in the fact that the policy documents determine the ambitions and the capabilities of the armed forces and the doctrine publications provide guidance for the conduct of military operations.
