Abstract

The increasing complexity and scale of modern global conflicts necessitate the professionalization of military forces to ensure national security and international stability. This study analyzes the challenges and best practices in the professionalization of military formations, drawing upon the experiences of the USA, Israel, and Germany. Employing comparative analysis, system analysis, and SWOT analysis, the research identifies key challenges such as adapting to new technologies, personnel training and motivation, and integration of diverse military structures. The study also highlights best practices, including the adoption of cutting-edge technologies, effective training and motivation programs, and the establishment of integrated and flexible management structures. By providing a comprehensive understanding of the professionalization process in the context of global conflicts, this research contributes valuable insights for countries developing their own military professionalization strategies.
