Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the 39th volume in the Occasional Paper series of the U.S. Air Force Institute for National Security Studies (INSS). Aerospace power has emerged as a primary military instrument of choice in pursuing national objectives within the complex international security environment entering the 21st century. Changes in the security landscape, the dynamics of sub-theater conflicts, and coalition imperatives combine to place new requirements on aerospace operational planning and the conduct of aerospace operations themselves. Occasional Papers 38 and 39 address, in turn, both political and operational dimensions of aerospace power application today. They are presented both for informational and educational purposes to offer informed perspectives on important aspects of contemporary aerospace operations, to generate informed discussion and to bound productive debate on aerospace power in both supported and supporting roles. In Occasional Paper 38, "Constraints, Restraints, and the Role of Aerospace Power in the 21st Century," Jeffrey Beene presents a comprehensive examination of the use of aerospace power within tightly restrained conflicts and suggests improvements in doctrine, training, and tools to more effectively employ such power within that environment. In this Occasional Paper, "Aerospace Power in Urban Warfare: Beware the Hornet's Nest," Peter Hunt examines the employment of aerospace power in the increasingly important urban operational environment. Aerospace technologies and systems offer alternatives and important adjuncts to surface forces in the urban arena, but significant obstacles and critical considerations must be brought into planning for such operations. Each of these aspects of aerospace power demands greater thought and analysis, and these two occasional papers are presented to help focus that attention.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rarely does a work of military strategy elevate its vision beyond merely military concerns. Rarer still are strategies that compel the wise engagement of our military with the broader polity they serve-the American people. The strategy you are about to read is this rare exception. American Aerospace Power: Choosing to Lead in the Twenty-First Century offers a compelling vision for sustaining the American way of life for the next hundred years. As challenges to world order and the American way of life appear around every corner, our instinct might be to ask, "What do we do now?" Wiser strategists, however, ask where have we been? Where have we historically gained our strength, preserved our advantage, and developed one of the most prosperous societies in the history of the world? This essay looks forward by first looking back, and it finds that America's strengths as an aerospace nation laid the foundation for our unmatched prosperity over the past 100 years.This is a story of civil-military partnerships at their finest, harnessing the innovation of industry, the insight of academia, the strength of the military, and the sweat equity of the American worker. Together, this aerospace nation propelled Charles Lindbergh across the Atlantic in 1927, rocketed Chuck Yeager through the sound barrier in 1947, landed Neil Armstrong on the moon in 1969, and hung the constellation of satellites that give communication, timing, and navigation to the entire world. As the authors make clear, American aerospace strength has been the fruit of toil matched with vision, not a birthright. The challenge for a new century is to reclaim our aerospace roots as a nation. As the pace of technological change accelerates, and with it the potential threats to our American way of life, our aerospace power may prove to be the margin of our survival. The strategy outlined in this essay appeals not to a military audience, but to the American people; the task ahead of us is a national task, not just a military one. Our approach needs to be comprehensive once again, uniting our societal strengths in industry, technology, manufacturing, and innovation. American Aerospace Power gives us a path forward, equally grand in its scope and detailed in its recommendations.

This book was released on 1992 with total page 387 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of essays reflects the proceedings of a 1991 conference on "The United States Air Force: Aerospace Challenges and Missions in the 1990s," sponsored by the USAF and Tufts University. The 20 contributors comment on the pivotal role of airpower in the war with Iraq and address issues and choices facing the USAF, such as the factors that are reshaping strategies and missions, the future role and structure of airpower as an element of US power projection, and the aerospace industry's views on what the Air Force of the future will set as its acquisition priorities and strategies. The authors agree that aerospace forces will be an essential and formidable tool in US security policies into the next century. The contributors include academics, high-level military leaders, government officials, journalists, and top executives from aerospace and defense contractors.

Download or read book Strategic Appraisal written by Zalmay Khalilzad and published by Rand Corporation. This book was released on 2002-07-31 with total page 510 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Change--in international relations, in technology, and in society as a whole--has become the idiom of our age. One example of these changes has been an increasing recognition of the value of air and space assets for handling nearly every contingency from disaster relief to war and, onsequently, increasing demand for such assets. These developments have created both challenges and opportunities for the U.S. Air Force. This, the fourth volume in the Strategic Appraisal series, draws on the expertise of researchers from across RAND to explore both the challenges and opportunities that the U.S. Air Force faces as it strives to support the nation's interests in a challenging technological and security environment.Contributors examine the changing roles of air and space forces in U.S.national security strategy, the implications of new systems and technologiesfor military operations, and the role of nuclear weapons in U.S. securitystrategy. Contributors also discuss the status of major modernizationefforts within the Air Force, and the bill of health of the Air Force, asmeasured by its readiness to undertake its missions both today and in thefuture.

This book was released on 2001 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The emerging complexities involved in application of the instruments of national power (i.e., political, economic, military, and informational) to achieve national/coalition objectives are such that, as a minimum, these instruments must be better integrated in the future to have a reasonable chance of achieving a desired end state. Technological advances will provide increasing means for aerospace power, in particular, to overcome its most difficult historical constraints most notably weather and mobile/time-critical targets. However, it is difficult to understand if aerospace power, singly or predominantly, can be counted on to achieve desired objectives in the face of tight political restraints that, at best, reduce efficiency and, at worst, preclude its effectiveness. It is important to understand that the U.S. military has always been constrained and restrained to some degree. In general, the U.S. military will continue to be restrained in a manner inversely proportional to the crisis' proximity to vital national interests. The further the crisis from vital interests, the more restraints, and the greater the premium on strategy for the airman, soldier, sailor, and Marine. In this context, the airman has the most at stake. Recent events reveal that airmen have not thought of all 'how's' of aerospace power employment. Two important areas are 'response' and 'coercion'. To this end, Joint and USAF doctrine, training, and tools can be improved to enhance strategy development and application across the conflict spectrum at the national, joint force, and operational levels in an emerging complex, rapid-pace world.
