Guerrilla tactics refer to unconventional military strategies used by smaller, less equipped forces to combat larger, more powerful opponents. These tactics often include surprise attacks, ambushes, and hit-and-run operations, allowing the smaller force to exploit the weaknesses of their enemy. The goal is to disrupt and demoralize the opponent while minimizing direct confrontation. Historically, guerrilla tactics have been employed in various conflicts, such as the Vietnam War and the American Revolutionary War. These strategies rely on mobility, knowledge of the terrain, and the support of the local population to achieve their objectives, making them effective in asymmetric warfare situations.
