  • Comment: Sources should present significant coverage (WP:SIGCOV) of the subject and be reliable, secondary sources. Typically things like being quoted or mentioned in an article do not constitute "significant" coverage - more of a passing mention. RachelTensions (talk) 00:35, 12 November 2024 (UTC)
  • Comment: The sources are all primary, and therefore unable to satisfy WP:GNG, and I don't see anything there that would meet WP:NACADEMIC either. DoubleGrazing (talk) 08:44, 19 May 2024 (UTC)

Jahara Matisek is a US Air Force officer who has become the most published active-duty service member currently serving, with two books and over 100 articles and essays in peer-reviewed journals, policy relevant outlets, and edited volumes. He is currently a Military Professor in the National Security Affairs department at the US Naval War College[1] and his impact on US strategy and foreign policy through innovative research led to him earning the 2024 Military Faculty Award for Excellence in Research[2] at the US Naval War College. Jahara was previously an Associate Professor in the Military and Strategic Studies department at the US Air Force Academy (2018-2022).[3] He is currently a Fellow at the Payne Institute for Public Policy and the European Resilience Initiative Center and has previously been a Fellow at the Modern War Institute, Irregular Warfare Initiative, Project on International Peace and Security (PIPS) at the College of William & Mary, and Homeland Defense Institute.

Jahara earned a PhD in Political Science at Northwestern University in 2018, and is a 2005 graduate of the US Air Force Academy. Besides teaching and publishing, he is a Command Pilot with over 3,700 flight hours in the C-17, E-11 BACN, T-6, and T-53, to include earning a Bronze Star for commanding air operations at Kandahar airfield in Afghanistan in 2020. He is most known for his writings on security assistance, such as coining the phrase "Fabergé egg armies,"[4] and his research on information warfare,[5] peacebuilding,[6] Arctic warfare,[7] and US strategies,[8] such as gray zone deterrence[9] and irregular statecraft[10] have contributed to the development of the security studies literature. His co-authored 2022 book, Old and New Battlespaces, details why everything is becoming weaponized and how everyone becomes a combatant in the information age. His 2022 co-edited volume, Military Strategy, Joint Operations, and Airpower, presents how to formulate US strategy and the ways in which the joint force and multidomain airpower can be best optimized for modern warfare. Given recent great power competition events in Taiwan and Ukraine, his articles have increasingly focused on how the West can uphold the liberal rules-based international order by providing support and assistance to Taiwan[11] and Ukraine.[12]

Jahara has also become an established academic in the field of foreign military training and influence operations through multiple research grants. He is Co-PI on a Department of Defense Minerva grant (2020-2026) titled "Foreign Military Training: Building Effective Armed Forces in Weak States"[13] and is also Co-PI on a different Department of Defense Minerva grant (2024-2026) titled "Identifying Patterns of Russia’s Malign Influence Operations."[14] Moreover, because of his groundbreaking work on the role of volunteers[15] and non-governmental organizations[16] in the Russo-Ukraine War, he is now a Co-PI for Defense Security Cooperation University research grant (2024-2026) titled "Formal and Informal Security Assistance: Improving Western lethal and nonlethal aid and training programs amidst Strategic Competition." As a world-renowned expert on military affairs and warfare, Jahara's writings have been featured at The Wall Street Journal[17] and Newsweek[18] and he has been quoted in UK Parliamentary reports[19] and cited and interviewed in numerous news outlets and periodicals around the world to include: The Economist,[20] Politico,[21] Business Insider,[22] Voice of America,[23] MSN,[24] The Insider,[25] Defense One,[26] Quartz,[27] Army Times,[28] Deutsche Welle (DW),[29] L’Express,[30] Asia Times,[31] Telegraf,[32] and others.
