Abstract: The article deals with the main provisions of the US doctrine documents published in 2015. Analysis of their unclear omissions and contradictions makes it possible to conclude that most of the defects of the US military planning have appeared at the level of policy and strategy but not at the level of tactics or operative decisions. Instead of overcoming the fundamental disconnect between foreign policy and strategic objectives that is characteristic of the United States, the White House chooses to rely primarily on its supremacy in military technology. This allows the US to win battles - but not wars.
