Review This Book

This work attempts to demonstrate that a profound shift in airpower doctrine has occurred since Desert Storm with the increasing perfection of precision guided munitions. Wills argues that the air component can now be considered supported by the ground component in combat. The consequence of this shift is a requirement for thorough reconsideration of “force structure, organization, weapons acquisition, doctrine, and training.”
