"Conventional
warfare is a form of
warfare conducted by using conventional military weapons
and battlefield tactics between two or more
states in open confrontation. The forces on each side
are well-defined, and fight using weapons that primarily
target the opposing army. It is normally fought using
conventional weapons, not
chemical,
biological, nor
nuclear weapons.The
general purpose of conventional warfare is to weaken or
destroy the opponent's military force, thereby negating its
ability to engage in conventional warfare. In forcing
capitulation, however, one or both sides may eventually
resort to
unconventional warfare tactics."Source:
