In some ways, the military is pretty good about that stuff actually. Their leadership is well trained in identifying goals and mission requirements, and planning accordingly without a lot of barking about the old ways. The US military has learned several times that planning to win the last war is a bad idea; they are receptive to forward thinking. It's when it gets to the political level that it bogs down.
