Air power today dominates virtually all military operations, yet it remains the least well-understood form of armed force. Technical and tactical details of aviation forces are widely available, but few understand how such forces are best used in prosecuting defence and security policy. The Air Weapon seeks to address this deficiency by setting out the doctrines which guide the use of air power at the strategic and operational levels of war. It identifies what aviation forces can - and cannot - be used to achieve. It encompasses doctrines for war-fighting and also for war-prevention. And it suggests possible directions for future doctrinal development. Following a cohesive 'top-down' analytical path, the study deals with air power in the only viable way: as an integrated entity. The Air Weapon is perhaps the only all-encompassing high-level study of this critically important yet all-too-little-understood form of military power.

The 1980's saw an increased emphasis on the need to operate jointly in the planning and conduct of military operations. Historically, one sphere of operations has been conducted jointly for several decades -- counterair operations. However, Army-Air Force counterair operations primarily consisted of efforts to deconflict, divide, and compartmentalize activities rather than integrate them. This was due to technological limitations which precluded simultaneous Army and Air Force operations in the same air space. This study seeks to examine changes in threat technology and doctrine; imperatives of our current AirLand Battle doctrine; and potential mismatches between our capabilities and those required to meet the intent of our doctrine. Both the Soviet and non-Soviet threats we confront world-wide are more sophisticated and evolving. They are demonstrating an increasing use of the airspace in their conduct of operations. Such uses potentially inhibit execution of our AirLand Battle doctrine. However, from these conditions come opportunities for the future. The paper explores potential counters to a threat's use of the third dimension, doctrinal implications of the counters, and some possible technological considerations. The study closes with the conclusion that considerable joint study is needed to develop an optimum mix of future counterair capabilities. Keywords: Joint military activities; Air defense. (edc).

Now that '3-D models’ are so often digital displays on flat screens, it is timely to look back at the solid models that were once the third dimension of science. This book is about wooden ships and plastic molecules, wax bodies and a perspex economy, monuments in cork and mathematics in plaster, casts of diseases, habitat dioramas, and extinct monsters rebuilt in bricks and mortar. These remarkable artefacts were fixtures of laboratories and lecture halls, studios and workshops, dockyards and museums. Considering such objects together for the first time, this interdisciplinary volume demonstrates how, in research as well as in teaching, 3-D models played major roles in making knowledge. Accessible and original chapters by leading scholars highlight the special properties of models, explore the interplay between representation in two dimensions and three, and investigate the shift to modelling with computers. The book is fascinating reading for anyone interested in the sciences, medicine, and technology, and in collections and museums.

This study examines the concept of fielding an Army aviation division as a viable options for deep attack execution in AirLand Battle Future. First the study synopsizes the key elements of AirLand Battle Future (ADB-F), then it determines the future role of Army aviation during the ADB-F transition. Next the study examines the points of view of six key theorists related to the massing and application of rotary wing aviation in the context of deep battle. Then history from the Korean War to the present is reviewed to trace the tactical and technological evolution of Army aviation in its wartime role. Throughout this historical period, Army aviation has grown in size, mass, and efficiency. This monograph finds that an Army aviation division is not only a viable third dimension transition to AirLand Battle Future, but it is the most logical and economical application of massed combat power at the disposal of the corps commander. As examined within, the formulation of the Army aviation division best prepares us for success in our Future First Battles. This study concludes that the organization of the Army aviation division is a viable part of the solution to fight AirLand Battle Future.

With today mutable identities and various kinds of warfare, how do we further our understanding of war? Reviewing influential war theories from Machiavelli to the present, this book analyses how they reduce war in terms of time, space, interaction, purpose, aim, and/or evolution. Considering war as a complex adaptive system allows us to increase our overall comprehension of contemporary wars.
