Every airman or person interested in the art and science of air and
space warfare should read this book. True to the direction of Gen
James Jamerson, former deputy commander in chief of US European
Command, and the author, the Air University Balkans Air Campaign
Study (BACS) has emerged as a balanced and wide-ranging discussion
of the Deliberate Force air campaign, which occurred during the
fall of 1995. Exploiting the sources and resources available to
them, the BACS team members have laid out a mile-wide and foot-deep
exploration of the context, theoretical foundations, planning,
execution, leadership, and effects of this milestone event. In so
doing, they have contributed significantly to our knowledge about
the political, military, technical, and human elements that shape
air campaigns and influence their outcomes. Moreover, the BACS
offers insights into persistent questions of military planners,
such as the relationship of diplomacy and war; the synergy of land
power, space power, and airpower; and the role of chance and "fog"
in the conduct and outcome of air and space warfare. Finally,
because the BACS team from the start wrote this report for
immediate declassification, virtually the entire report and all of
its substantive elements are available here as an open source, only
four years after the event. Given its scope, this book should
contain material of interest to all aerospace-warfare practitioners
and/or thinkers, regardless of their area of expertise.
