Lecture Abstract

Since the advent of the military airplane, seizing and controlling the air has been of crucial importance. With control of the air, all other missions are possible; without control of the air, all other missions are compromised and endangered. This talk examines the evolution of air dominance warfare, including the history of fighter aircraft development, defensive and offensive fighter strategy and tactics, the evolution of ground-based air defense threats (particularly surface-to-air missiles), and examines the current challenge of waging effective air operations in the emerging era of 5th Generation and Double-Digit SAMs. Combat experience and lessons learned are presented from a variety of conflicts and crises in which air dominance proved of crucial importance, or crucially lacking.
