Product Description

Synopsis

Air power has been the most potent weapon of destruction in modern warfare and yet its effectiveness is neither uniform nor assured. The author analyzes the strategic bombing campaigns of the Vietnam era and reveals the serious pitfalls in the reliance on air powers as a primary instrument in a limited war. Proving that air power, no matter how vast, may not be effective, he establishes the critical importance of matching bombing objectives to national policy goals in war.
