Organizational activities and strategies are influenced by strategic orientations. Leaders and managers, based on their perceived necessities, determine the priority of the organization's activities and, in this regard, put the all resources of the organization in a same purposeful direction. The advice of thinkers is the balanced development of an organization, but organizations are required to adopt a strategic orientation according to conditions. The purpose of this descriptive study is to determine the strategic orientation of AJA University of Command and Staff in the last three periods. For this purpose, the performance of commanders in the three recent periods (2003-2005, 2005- 2010, 2010- 2015) was evaluated based on the BSC model and 59 indicators were investigated to measure the dimensions of growth and learning, internal processes, stakeholders and financial and the results were analyzed based on the results of these measures. The results showed that in the first period of strategy, stability and emphasis on preserving the current situation, the strategic orientation was dominant, and internal processes were the priority of the attention of the commanders. In the second period, the commanders sought to exit the strategy of defense and stability in some aspects, but in practice, the strategy of stability continued to dominate most of the university's activities during this period. In the third period, the statistics indicate that this period is the period of development of organizational, human, information, equipment and infrastructure resources at AJA command and Staff University, and the governing strategy at the University during this period is the strategy of growth and development.

This study aimed to determine the effect of managers as a social capital in creating organizational change at Khatam-ol-Anbia air defense base. For this purpose, social capital has been divided into three Structural, relational and cognitive dimensions and its relationship with organizational transformation was investigated. This research isapplied, based on the purpose and is correlation, based on the research method and the required data were collected by survey method.The statistical population of the study was personnel of the headquarters of Khatam-ol-Anbia Air Defense Base. A random sampling method was used and the sample size was determined using a Cochran sampling formula of 72 people. Data were collected using questionnaire and analyzed by Spearman correlation and regression tests. The findings of the research indicate that there is a direct linear relationship between social capital and all its dimensions and constituent components with organizational transformation. Managers as a social capital has a significant impact on organizational transformation, and all three structural, relational and cognitive aspects of this capital affect organizational transformation.

The Islamic Republic of Iran has a very special position in the Middle East. Independence, anti- arrogance approach and insistence of Iran on its indisputable rights have caused a variety of threats and wars in the region; accordingly achieving and maintaining combat power for superiority in the new wars, such as the combined warfare, has always been the mainstream of the military elite and senior commanders in the armed forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran. Combat capability of Islamic Republic of Iran Army in hybrid warfare depends on multiple actions and effective strategies in different areas, too; therefore, the current research aims at “understanding and achieving the most important factors, components and indicators on the combat power of AJA in Combined Warfare”. In order to achieve this goal, a mixed approach of applied-development research and descriptive-case study was selected. After collecting the research literature in the areas of combined warfare and combat capability, various fields were assessed from the military readiness perspective. The questionnaire and interviewing was used to identify the components of the factors of combat power factors. Two dimensions were extracted in their indexes: tangible factors (maneuver components, electronic warfare operations, information operations, coordination and control, coverage and deception and ...) and intangible factors (the components of faith, morale, education, discipline, guidance and leadership, organization). The results of the research indicate that the factors related to the superiority of combat power capabilities, with consideration of the above factors, play a significant role in the management of the battle scenes of combined wars, and achievement of the goal in combined wars will be faster than any action.

Chemical warfare agents (CWAs) are toxic chemicals and are organized and classified according to their effects on the human body. The widespread use of these compounds in mass killings and terrorist operations is clearly evident. The presence of these compounds in water, as well as in the environment, has been a source of concern. Therefore, this paper introduces methods for analyzing and detecting these compounds. Thin-layer chromatography (TLC), as a simple, cost-effective and easy method, is one of the first methods to identify these compounds. In addition, in this paper, new methods for detecting and measuring CWAs such as ionic mobility spectrometers (IMS), colorimetric, fluorescence, Aptasensors, Raman spectroscopy, surface elevation (SERS) and audio sensors have also been introduced. It should be noted that all these methods provide a very good detection limit for the determination of these compounds in different environments. These methods are also used to detect Dimethyl methylphosphonate (DMMP) as a quasi-nerve agent.

In recent years, some new terms of war in the domestic military circles have been brought up, and a huge flood of books, articles, training plans, and so on, is being sent to military organizations to respond to this new demand. Consequently, the authorities and military commanders constantly repeat the new term and speak of the transformation in order to keep up with this process, in speeches, conferences, and so on; The catastrophe is rising at a time when a lot of spending is spent on implementing new military exercises, drafting new rules and books, and justifying the use of the new term. And, of course, the result is already clear, and none of these terms has had any tangible achievements so far. The fact is that martial units are practically using the same old way of war, and these new terms only cause confusion and lack of training and, consequently, reduced combat power. Due to the nature of the research subject, this research is applied in a practical way and its research method is consistent with the descriptive method and the mixed data analysis approach has been used efficiently and effectively. To do this research, data collection was done in both field and library methods. For this purpose, related literature and reliable field studies conducted by others have been investigated and other necessary information has been obtained through the search of the library, the Internet and the internal and external databases. The main information was collected through a self-made questionnaire. The reliability of the questionnaire was calculated by split-half method (89%), which confirms that the questions of the questionnaire were highly reliable. The statistical population included in this study is 32 university professors who are in the field of defense and security issues with outstanding academic and practical qualifications. The research findings showed that the components attributed to the combined warfare did not show a significant change with what they were.

The combination of iron and carbon creates a material called Steel, which has led to the production of metal with many advantages. The present research also suggests that similarly useful concepts of knowledge and talent management can be combined and create a strong concept called "intelligent talent management" that increases the effectiveness and efficiency of individual and organizational performance as well as increasing competitive advantage. With predictions of future wars, two crucial factors in the upcoming wars - human resources and information technology - are considered. Intelligent talent management can be a major factor in future wars by influencing these two important factors in the armed forces and such a highly personalized and organizational performance cannot be achieved with the use of knowledge or talent management. Finally, by providing a conceptual model of intelligent talent management in future wars, we gain a competitive advantage.

Since the Aviation is based on facility, getting benefit of skilled and efficient personnel which are updated with the latest science is quite important. One of those since which the aviators need to know about, is the material linked with "Commercial Pilot License" which goes under supervision of "ICAO1” and it is to be said; so far there is no application over directly utilizing of ICAO publications in the training syllabus of the Islamic Republic of Iran Army Aviation (IRIAA). As it was considered, how to enhance the capabilities of pilots using "Commercial Pilot License" training including "Rules of Air", "Radiotelephony" and "Aerodromes", the dependent-variable was kept with no changes and the information obtained from documents, interviews with experts and questionnaires was collected and analyzed by descriptive-mixed method. As a result, the independent variable's impact on increasing the ability of pilots was confirmed to be high. The statistical community in this paper included all of IRIAA pilots, whose statistics were obtained from competent authorities, and, for security classification purposes, it was multiplied by a number and the result was 172. The researcher concluded from the research findings that if the deputy director of education of IRIAA provid the necessary planning to establish a relationship with the "Civil Aviation Organization" in order to conduct commercial pilot license training (air law, radio conversations, and airports) at IRIAA training center as a Supplementary course, the ability of airborne pilot pilots will increase.
