Professional Mastery and Air Power Education
"This paper focuses on professional mastery, which is a critical attribute for success for every member of the 'profession of arms.' Dr Sanu Kainikara explores the elements that comprise the profession of arms from an air force perspective. He explains that an air force, being a technical force, is a collection of sub-elements that achieve technical mastery in areas such as flying, engineering, logistics or administration and that the higher level of professional mastery is achieved only when these elements are synchronised and orchestrated into a professional force that can deliver air power. He goes on to explain that the pinnacle of professional mastery is achieved when an air force plays a distinctive role in the grand strategy of national security ... The paper concludes by highlighting some fundamental truths about air forces maintaining their leading edge through a continuous process of education, learning, introspection and the practical application of knowledge"--P. iii.
The Future of Air Power in the Aftermath of the Gulf War
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.
Australian Perspectives on Global Air and Space Power
This book surveys historical and emerging global air and space power issues and provides a multidisciplinary understanding of the application of air and space power in the past and present, while exploring potential future challenges that global air forces may face. Bringing together leading and emerging academics, professionals, and military personnel from Australia within the field of air and space power, this edited collection traces the evolution of technological innovations, as well as the ethical and cultural frameworks which have informed the development of air and space power in the 20th and 21st centuries, and contemplates the future. It covers topics such as the insurgents' use of ...
A Fresh Look at Air Power Doctrine
Doctrine is the lifeblood of military forces and provides them with the foundation to conduct successful operations. The veracity of any doctrine is completely dependent on it being relevant to current and future operations -- essentially by its very nature doctrine is dynamic. National security perceptions and definitions have evolved in the past few decades and now cover an enlarged envelope of imperatives and interests. As a result the military forces of nation-states have had to increase the spectrum of their capabilities to cover a spread that encompasses humanitarian assistance on the one end to high-end warfighting on the other. The military forces have achieved national objectives so...
Aerospace power in the twenty-first century a basic primer
Dr. Chun's Aerospace Power in the Twenty-First Century: A Basic Primer is a great start towards understanding the importance of aerospace power and its ability to conduct modern warfare. Aerospace power is continually changing because of new technology, threats, and air and space theories. However, many basic principles about aerospace power have stood the test of time and warfare. This book provides the reader with many of these time-tested ideas for consideration and reflection. Although Aerospace Power in the Twenty-First Century was written for future officers, individuals desiring a broad overview of aerospace power are invited to read, share, and discuss many of the ideas and thoughts presented here. Officers from other services will find that this introduction to air and space forces will give them a good grasp of aerospace power. More experienced aerospace leaders can use this book to revisit many of the issues that have affected air and space forces in the past and that might affect them in the future. Air Force officers will discover that Aerospace Power in the Twenty-First Century is a very timely and reflective resource for their professional libraries.
