Human Limitation, 1978

The militaries of Libya and Rhodesia in the Cold War were a study in contrasts. One was one of the most capable forces on a tactical level that was burdened by a constant lack of equipment, while the other was a force of low quality that enjoyed huge amounts of equipment. Thus, a meeting of the two in battle provides an excellent case for the degree to which training and skill can make up for inferior equipment. Libya's African meddling has moved all the way south to Zambia and Rhodesia, and they are set to launch a large attack across the Zambezi.
