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.

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).

In the pantheon of air power spokesmen, Giulio Douhet holds center stage. His writings, more often cited than perhaps actually read, appear as excerpts and aphorisms in the writings of numerous other air power spokesmen, advocates-and critics. Though a highly controversial figure, the very controversy that surrounds him offers to us a testimonial of the value and depth of his work, and the need for airmen today to become familiar with his thought. The progressive development of air power to the point where, today, it is more correct to refer to aerospace power has not outdated the notions of Douhet in the slightest In fact, in many ways, the kinds of technological capabilities that we enjoy as a global air power provider attest to the breadth of his vision. Douhet, together with Hugh “Boom” Trenchard of Great Britain and William “Billy” Mitchell of the United States, is justly recognized as one of the three great spokesmen of the early air power era. This reprint is offered in the spirit of continuing the dialogue that Douhet himself so perceptively began with the first edition of this book, published in 1921. Readers may well find much that they disagree with in this book, but also much that is of enduring value. The vital necessity of Douhet’s central vision-that command of the air is all important in modern warfare-has been proven throughout the history of wars in this century, from the fighting over the Somme to the air war over Kuwait and Iraq.

This is a book about strategy and war fighting. It contains 11 essays which examine topics such as military operations against a well-armed rogue state, the potential of parallel warfare strategy for different kinds of states, the revolutionary potential of information warfare, the lethal possibilities of biological warfare and the elements of an ongoing revolution in military affairs. The purpose of the book is to focus attention on the operational problems, enemy strategies and threat that will confront U.S. national security decision makers in the twenty-first century.
