The fallacy of single source fire supportAitken, David M. 06 1900 (has links)
Approved for public release; distribution is unlimited / This thesis examines the reliance on air power for fire support by light forces and whether other fire support assets could perform these missions better. By studying the historical evolution of fire support, air power and small wars doctrine, patterns emerge in how these developments interrelate. These patterns have led to a system that does not take advantage of some of the capabilities of other fire support assets, mainly artillery and mortars. The case of Operation Enduring Freedom, in Afghanistan, highlights how light forces have come to depend on airpower. Could other forms of fire support have provided coverage that would have been more effective than the air support received? Light forces need to be aware that they have more choices for fire support than calling in air strikes and that artillery and mortars provide capabilities that air power cannot currently duplicate. Afghanistan demonstrated that artillery remains relevant. In a very permissive environment with few competing missions, there were times when air power could not provide the needed fire support to the ground maneuver forces. / Major, United States Army

The law governing aerospace warfare in the twenty-first century / / Law governing aerospace warfare in the 21st centuryHoversten, Michael R. January 2000 (has links)
The world is in the midst of a revolution in the conduct of military operations wherein modern military aerospace information systems, weapons and their associated weapon systems are changing the conduct of warfare. Aerospace power has become the dominant, if not decisive, factor in modern warfare. Yet, there are currently no treaties dealing specifically with the law of armed conflict in the air and space environments. Chapter I describes the evolution to date of the law governing aerospace warfare. Chapter II analyzes the relevance of military interventions in Iraq and Yugoslavia (Bosnia; Kosovo) to the law of air and space warfare. Chapter III discusses the impact of "humanitarian intervention" on the law of aerospace warfare. Chapters IV and V explore the role and effect of earth-based and space-based military assets respectively. This thesis concludes that although the existing law of armed conflict is capable of evolving to cope with the legal issues posed by aerospace warfare in the twenty-first century, the conclusion of multilateral agreements to deal with some of those issues is advisable.
