I think the era of classic world wars á la WW2 is gone. Instead I think for surgical and localized proxy battle fields might emerge in non-NATO countries like arabia, ukraine, africa, maybe south east asia.
In terms of attacks against NATO countries I believe more in terrorism, biological warfare, cyber attacks and so on to destablize countries. Psy-ops to install friendly governments is also a technique of the future.
So this is how I think conflicts will happen in the future.
