Friedrich Glasl's model of conflict escalation [1] assists in the analysis of conflicts. Appropriate reactions can be derived from this analysis. The model has nine stages – in contrast to the earlier model of Kurt R. Spillmann, [2] which describes five distinct stages of escalation. These stages are grouped into three levels, which each ...
Military strategist John Boyd created a model of decision and action, originally for air-to-air fighter combat, but which has proven useful in many areas of conflict. His model has four phases, which, while not usually stated in terms of the intelligence cycle, do relate to that cycle: Observe: become aware of a threat or opportunity.

Phases typically found in offensive military operations are: Preparation. Intelligence gathering phase [1] Operations planning phase; Logistics management phase
