Detailed explanation-1: -"BLITZKRIEG” or lightning war is not a German term for just any kind of quickly waged and violent war. It is a name for a special kind of quickly waged and violent war which has a technique of its own.
Detailed explanation-2: -The blitzkrieg was a form of military operation developed by an innovative member of the German military-Heinz Guderian-shortly before World War II.
Detailed explanation-3: -Blitzkrieg relied on surprise, speed, and ground coverage, making use of each military branch within the Wehrmacht. By calling on seamen and soldiers alike, Germany freed up enough resources to ensure that any resistance could be squashed. Blitzkriegs followed a formulaic approach: attack, penetrate, and encircle.
Detailed explanation-4: -It’s very much still viable. Norman Schwartzkopf’s execution of the Allied invasion of Iraq during the 1991 Gulf War was a textbook implementation of “Blitzkrieg” style warfare. No. The blitzkrieg was developed as a response to the tactics of WWI which would be suicide in this day and age.
