In the immediate post-World War II period, Army aviation began
to evolve from an observatory role to a mobility role. Helicopter
air mobility began to develop in the Army from 1949 onwards. The
outbreak of the Korean war assisted and accelerated the acceptance
of greater helicopter air mobility within the Army. The Eisenhower
period was a golden age for Army aviation, with rapid and extensive
developments in air mobility doctrine and tactics. There was also a
strong research and development effort to overcome the initial
technological lag. These developments allowed the formation of the
first air mobile division in 1965 to meet the growing demands of
the Vietnam war. This work gives a new understanding of the process
of military innovation. Moreover, this case study has important
general implications for future military policy-making.
