Military Reform: The High-Tech Debate in Tactical Air Forces,
Abstract
The author identifies the two sharply opposing schools of thought about how best to organize, equip, and train our military forces. 'Military reformers' and 'defense planners' clash on the strategy for and the use of high-technology weapons systems. The author's focus on the debate over tactical air forces and missions defines and illustrates the broader, more consequential issue of weapon system sophistication. In concrete point-counterpoint fashion, he objectively lays out the successes and failures, strengths and weaknesses of each side's argument.
