If World War I served as airpower’s infancy, then the developments and adaptations made during World War II were airpower’s awkward teenage years. The lessons learned during WWI and WWII laid the foundation for the newest domain of warfare to mature from. Through the inter-war period all major belligerents developed doctrine on how to employ airpower in the “next” war, over land and sea. It is my belief that the United States was the best, out of all belligerents, at adapting its airpower throughout

Dr. Alavi Panah’s notes about environment Serious and systematic monitoring of affairs Dr. Seyyed Kazem Alavi Panah Environmental problems are countless.

The Aviation Branch of the U.S. Army, as we know it today, did not exist at the turn of the 1800 to 1900 centuries. The military did use a Balloon Corps and Detachment for the Civil and Spanish-American Wars respectfully. However, the Army deactivated both organizations after their usage in the campaigns.

The mission is to “Fly, fight and win in air, space and cyberspace.” Currently, the Air Force accomplishes this mission well, taking to the sky and dominating both air and space with little opposition. However, the question remains whether the Air force can produce these same effects in the future. The purpose of this paper is to advocate that the United States Air Force is unprepared to remain the dominant

INTRODUCTION Joint warfare and separate military have their advantages and disadvantages, the benefits of the war-force joining together and forming a separate and single unit. BENEFITS OF JOINT WARFARE The benefits of joint forces to forming a single unit includes all the members i.e. service members having the tactical knowledge, understanding and the operational procedures and capabilities of each unit that will be joint together. They also reduce casualties in mission that they go to due to

CAS was an important mission during WWII. The synergistic effect of the tactical German aviation as part of the blitzkrieg was one of the main innovations in war. However, this was the result of the experimentation and training, much of which occurred during the Spanish Civil War. In the same way, Russian Tactical Aviation developed ground support capabilities that were important to stop the German invasion. On the American side, as a result of the performance of the Tactical Air Command (TAC), the

Airpower in the United States has had a contentious history and even today still raises a lot of debate.1 Leading up to the Second World War, airpower became a significant component of America’s fighting force. America began to recognize that it had a superior air force and began integrating that technology as part of its military strategy but not before overcoming significant integration challenges.

Being that the trench war began to slow down, it soon came down to the aerial battles for the people fighting in the skies to take down the enemy. In the beginning there wasn’t very many aircrafts in the sky but as the years passed with the war continuing, aircrafts started
