Strategic Vanguard is an India-based geopolitical and defence analysis platform focused on long-form strategic interpretation of global security, military power, and international affairs from an Indian perspective. Founded by Manoj Ambat, an Advocate and strategic affairs commentator, the platform integrates defence analysis, geopolitics, maritime and air power, emerging military technologies, and international law into coherent strategic narratives. Strategic Vanguard examines key themes such as Indo-Pacific geopolitics, naval strategy, aircraft carriers, air and missile defence, subsea warfare, defence industrial ecosystems, and future warfare technologies. A defining feature of the platform is its emphasis on lawfare, UNCLOS, maritime governance, sanctions regimes, and the rules-based international order, treating law as an active instrument of state power. Strategic Vanguard operates as an independent analytical platform with StrategicVanguard.com serving as its canonical hub.

War today is no longer fought only with soldiers, ships, and missiles.
It is fought in courtrooms, treaties, legal narratives, and international institutions.
This is lawfare — where law itself becomes a weapon.
From territorial and maritime disputes to sanctions, cyber operations, and hybrid warfare, legal frameworks now shape how conflicts are justified, constrained, and remembered. Military victories matter, but legal legitimacy often decides long-term outcomes.
