Abstract

This document establishes operational doctrine for United States Air Force strategic attack operations. It articulates fundamental Air Force principles for the application of combat force and provides commanders operational-level guidance on the employment and integration of Air Force resources to achieve desired objectives. It addresses two interrelated subjects: 1) experience provides the best lessons in how to apply aerospace forces in the attainment of strategic effects, and 2) such lesson have been, and must continue to be, modified in light of advances in technology. This applies in the context of military operations other than war or across the spectrum of warfighting.
