With the return of great power competition, the United States needs every advantage it can get over its adversaries. This CSIS report looks at how the U.S. might revitalize the old but overlooked tool of surprise to gain a strategic advantage in great power conflict.

This study identifies five alternative strategies and, using CSIS's Force Cost Calculator, builds a cost-capped force structure, modernization program, and readiness profile for each strategy.
