80) In keeping with its defence efforts, Slovakia is resolved to employ its Armed Forces in national defence based on the natural right to individual or collective self-defence in accordance with the UN Charter and principles of international law, in keeping with its international commitments stemming from the collective defence against armed attack treaty, the EU treaties and other international commitments. 81) The AF SR must ready themselves to act in accordance with the politico-military ambition of the Slovak Republic in a fundamentally changed security environment, entailing a change of the anticipated operational theatre of their future deployment, as well as the character of conducting combat operations against different types of adversaries. 82) The operational theatre of future AF SR deployment and employment will be differentiated geographically, environmentally, politically, economically and culturally, while it may be characterised by rapid and intensive military activity, high manoeuvrability of groups involved, employment of traditional land, air and SOF capabilities with an emphasis placed on their integrated and simultaneous deployment, conducting of cybernetic and electronic warfare and the presence of high-end technologies, including anti-access and area denial assets, unmanned aerial vehicles, precision munitions and other (also standard) technologies. The AF SR may also be employed in an operational theatre where no clear lines exist either between the battle front and rear, or between combatants and civilians. The AF SR may be called upon to take action against an adversary fighting a conventional war, or a mixed conventional and unconventional (asymmetrical) war in either different stages of a conflict or simultaneously (hybrid conflict) on open ground, but also in cities, which may also involve paramilitary forces. The AF SR may, however, also face an adversary that employs exclusively irregular, asymmetrical tactics (long-term insurgency activity) mainly in an urban environment. 83) In the event of defending the Slovak Republic, militarily favourable conditions at the strategic, operational and tactical levels will be created, based on prepared national capacities for AF SR support, primarily for a rapid operational deployment and the effective operation of the AF SR. During defensive operations on the territory of the Slovak Republic, other elements of the system of national defence along with the mobilisation of human and material capacities of the nation will support the AF SR, while HNS will be provided for. 84) In the context of growing regional instability generating greater threats to NATO member states, the territories of these states will be considered the top priority as regards the operational theatre of future AF SR deployment abroad (collective defence). It is expected that whilst operating on the territory of an Ally, HNS capacities of that Ally will be taken advantage of by the AF SR. OF THE SLOVAK REPUBLIC The collectively defended territories of NATO states will be considered the top priority as regards the operational theatre of future AF SR deployment abroad 43
