The purpose of this thesis is to determine which form of airpower
will best serve American power projection requirements as we
approach the turn of the century. It examines three forms of
airpower: carrier air, long-range combat air (B-2), and theater air
(i.e., F-15, F-16, EF-111). The author concludes that theater
aircraft are the mainstay of US airpower. Theater airpower was the
decisive form of airpower in our three major conflicts since World
War II (Korea, Vietnam, and Iraq) and will be in the regional
conflicts of the future. It is superior in the broadest sense of
the word--economically, militarily, and politically.
