4. Effect of restricted use of Airpower on air and surface operations (13:40).

5. Effect of the evolution of new anti-aircraft systems on the air campaigns (20:38).

6. Likely features of the next generation of aircraft (28:47).

Bottom Line

Without the proper use of Airpower:

Chances of failure are high

The cost of achieving objectives is high

Achievement of the objective may take long

 

Question

Are we giving adequate importance to the use of Airpower?
