Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - The intent of this paper is to explain the significant contribution of aviation foreign internal defense in combating terrorism in weak states. This study begins by identifying the national security threat posed by weak states and their attractiveness as a sanctuary for terrorist organizations. This study then examines how states respond to internal threats such as terrorism by implementing internal defense and development programs that are designed to address the underlying causes of internal instability. Next, the role of US foreign internal defense is examined and how it is used to support the internal development efforts of friendly nations. The study then explains the importance of airpower in combating terrorists, noting, however, that airpower capabilities in most developing nations are inadequate to the task. Finally, the study shows how the aviation component of foreign internal defense can address airpower capability gaps in weak states and how this strengthens the government's indigenous capability to combat terrorists.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - This study examines the role of air support in defending expeditionary air bases on the nonlinear battlefield. The study begins by calling on US Army doctrine to describe the characteristics of the nonlinear battlefield. Emphasis is placed on the undefended seams that emerge on this battlefield, noting that these seams can be exploited by enemy forces to move within striking distance of expeditionary air bases. Next, the study outlines the various reasons why expeditionary air bases make such an attractive target for ground attack: the extreme difficulty of fighting the US Air Force in symmetric aerial combat; the inherent vulnerability of expeditionary operations; the fragility of modern aircraft to ground attack; and the potential payoff of successful attacks. To determine the methods adversaries may use to attack air bases in the future, the study then briefly surveys the history of ground attacks against air bases in three conflicts: British raids against Axis airfields in World War II; Viet Cong and North Vietnamese Army attacks against US air bases in Vietnam; and Mujahideen missile attacks against aircraft landing and taking off from air bases in Afghanistan from 19861988. This review strongly suggests that the most dangerous and likely threat to air bases is posed by standoff weapons. The study assesses that this threat is particularly hard to counter due to recent advances in standoff weaponry and the difficulty involved in controlling the 'standoff footprint.'This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
