Synopsis
The Air Force's master tenet of centralized control, decentralized execution is in danger of becoming dogma. Airmen have dif?culty communicating the meaning of this phrase in a joint setting. Furthermore, the irregular con?icts in Afghanistan and Iraq (and the ongoing service debates in the Paci?c) have demonstrated the need for a deeper understanding to advocate effectively for airpower solutions. We must get this right, as it is critical to maximizing airpower's potential. Getting it right, however, requires moving beyond sound bites and bumper stickers. No simple answer abounds. We cannot say that air operations should always be centralized or decentralized, because any such assertion withers before logic and evidence. (Lt Col Clint "Q" Hinote is currently engaged in multiple projects dealing with airpower applications in irregular warfare at Air University, Maxwell Air Force Base, Alabama. Originally published by the Air Force Research Institute.)
