The mission of close air support (CAS) currently exists in every
service doctrine and will continue to be required in 2025. Advances
in technology will reduce the many shortfalls currently causing
concern regarding the CAS mission. In 2025, time-critical
applications of airpower and space power in support of troops on
the ground will be vastly simplified from the perspective of both
the tasker and the attacker. This paper describes the requisite
systems and technology needed for aircraft to perform the mission.
It does not discuss organizational issues. Advances in ground-based
firepower are expected to proceed at a pace commensurate with
technical advances in airpower --perhaps reducing the dependency of
ground forces on air support, depending on the coalition elements'
technical base. The ability for ground forces to overwhelmingly
engage an opponent will always be a goal of the ground commander,
and commanders will always plan engagements to optimize usage of
their available power.
