ISBN: 9780891416395 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 456 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. A valuable and long-overdue biography of one of America s greatest soldiers. Parameters
The story of Gen. Carl Tooey Spaatz s life is more than a biography of one of America s great military leaders. It is a history of the development of airpower, and a fascinating, inside look at the long, difficult struggle to win autonomy for the U.S. Air Force. Spaatz earned his wings in 1918, when flying was a new and dangerous occupation; aviation school mortality rates were 18 percent. After gaining experience as a fighter pilot during the Great War, he became one of the Air Corps... A valuable and long-overdue biography of one of America s greatest soldiers. Parameters

RPAs: Revolution or Retrogression?
ISBN: 9781479139149 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 38 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. A historian's occupational disease is to find old precedents for practically everything new that comes along. And that is true for remotely piloted aircraft (RPA) as well. In one way they are merely the continuation of the millennia-old human longing for methods of striking or observing one's enemies while remaining safe. The purpose of this essay is to briefly explore that which is old, to dwell for a time on what seems to be new, and to conclude with some speculations about the future of unmanned systems. George Patton once remarked that the object is not to die for one's country, but...

Airpower and Technology: Smart and Unmanned Weapons
ISBN: 9780275993146 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Is there a reason for the busy citizen-leader to read about air and space history, theory, and doctrine? Yes, asserts David Mets, because without some vision of what the future is likely to bring, we enter new conflicts unarmed with any ideas and highly vulnerable to confusion and paralysis. He wrote this book to help the aspirant American leader build a theory of war and air and space power, including an understanding of what doctrine is, and what its utility and limitations are. Since its earliest days, airpower has been one of the dominant forces used by the American... Is there a reason for the busy citizen-leader to read about air and space history, theory, and doctrine?

The Air Campaign: John Warden and the Classical Airpower Theorists
ISBN: 9781410219749 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 104 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In light of the age-old belief of Confucius that no idea is new, Dr. Mets examines the role of Colonel Warden in the Gulf War to determine if a revolution in military affairs had occurred. He relies on several twentieth-century antecedents to Warden, including Giulio Douhet, Hugh Trenchard, and Billy Mitchell to distill a pattern. Mets also addresses whether "the argument that antedated the Gulf War to the effect that such conflicts between states using conventional weapons and methods are a pressing phenomenon." Chapter 6, the concluding chapter, provides an overview of Mets's discussion.
