The bombing campaign that was meant to keep South Vietnam secure,
Rolling Thunder became a byword for pointless, ineffective
brutality, and was a key factor in America's Vietnam defeat. But in
its failures, Rolling Thunder was one of the most influential air
campaigns of the Cold War. It spurred a renaissance in US air power
and the development of an excellent new generation of US combat
aircraft, and it was still closely studied by the planners of the
devastatingly successful Gulf War air campaign. Dr Richard P.
Hallion, a vastly knowledgeable air power expert at the Pentagon,
explains in this fully illustrated study how the might of the US
air forces was crippled by inadequate strategic thinking, poor
pilot training, ill-suited aircraft and political interference.
