Download or read book Snakes in the Eagle's Nest written by Alan Vick and published by Minnesota Historical Society. This book was released on 1995 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Because future adversaries are likely to look for alternative means to challenging the U.S. Air Force (USAF) in the air to counter U.S. airpower, a recent RAND study for the USAF investigated those means. As part of that study, this historical effort sought to better understand past, present, and future ground threats to air bases. In the course of the research, it became clear that attacks on air bases were much more frequent and successful than is commonly appreciated. For this reason, the history of these attacks is pertinent to future USAF operations. This report presents a comprehensive overview of ground attacks on air bases from the first known attacks in 1940 to the most recent in 1992. The objectives, tactics, and outcomes of those attacks are analyzed to identify lessons learned and their applications to future conflicts. In particular, this report identifies the attack techniques that proved most difficult to counter and offers some suggestions for improving air base defenses against them. The five primary conclusions of this study are as follows: The most common air base attack objective was to destroy aircraft; seventy-five percent of the 645 attacks used standoff weapons; standoff attacks have proved extremely difficult to counter; reliance on non-air force services for air base defense proved problematic for Britain's Royal Air Force (RAF) on Crete, the German Luftwaffe in North Africa, and the USAF in Vietnam; small forces using unsophisticated weapons have successfully destroyed or damaged over 2,000 aircraft.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In view of the findings of recent RAND research that suggest that few opponents will be able to challenge the U.S. Air Force (USAF) in the air, a RAND study for the USAF, 'Countering U.S. Aerospace Power, ' has been investigating means that future adversaries might pursue to counter U.S. airpower. As part of that study, the historical effort reported here examines ground attacks on air bases in conflicts between 1940 and 1992. Its purpose is to offer a comprehensive review of attacker objectives and tactics, and of the most effective defensive countermeasures. The insights gained can be related to current air-base-defense doctrine and tactics and should be of interest to Air Force Security Police in training, operations, and policy positions. Additionally, it is hoped that the report will serve as a useful reference for Security Police courses on air base ground defense and for officers researching the history of ground attacks on air bases. The report should also be of interest to Air Force officers in operations and plans (OPLANS) positions who have a broader responsibility for ensuring the availability of airpower as a ready instrument in the defense of U.S. interests. Finally, the special forces, defense analysis, and military history communities should find the report of interest.

Download or read book The Great Eagles written by Michael O'Neal Campbell and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2022-05-19 with total page 1666 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the current literature and knowledge on the evolution and ecology of all the birds named as eagles, with particular emphasis on the larger species. It also examines the past and current relations between eagles and people, including habitat change and conservation issues. Eagle ecologies and conservation are currently seriously impacted by human activities such as industrialization, urbanization, pollution, deforestation and hunting. Some eagle species have consequently experienced extreme population changes. There are, however, some positive developments. Eagles have a strong, historic bond with human civilization, due to their status as the world’s most charismatic birds. Conservation policies have also been successful in repopulating some ecosystems with breeding eagles. Therefore, despite the complexity of this relationship, there may yet be hope for this unique species group, frequently rated as the kings of birds, and symbolic of human power, ambition, royalty, nationality, and even concepts of God. It is hoped that this book will contribute to the further understanding of these unique and fantastic birds.
