The military strategy employed by Azerbaijan in the 2020 Nagorno-Karabakh War was central to its success. Azerbaijan's forces, under the leadership of President Ilham Aliyev, made effective use of modern warfare technologies, including unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), or drones, which significantly impacted the outcome of the war. The use of drones to target Armenian positions, disrupt communications, and neutralize artillery systems proved to be a game-changer. Azerbaijan also demonstrated effective battlefield management, leveraging intelligence, rapid mobility, and well-coordinated ground and air forces. These elements combined to outmatch Armenian military capabilities and secure a swift victory in the conflict.
