Shock and awe (technically known as rapid dominance) is a military strategy based on the use of overwhelming power and spectacular displays of force to paralyze the enemy's perception of the battlefield and destroy their will to fight.

Wade in 1996 and was developed specifically for application by the US military by the National Defense University of the United States.
