Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - The literature on Effects Based Operations (EBO) seems to grow by the day . This paper proposes three broad modifications to concepts and cultures in order to embed EBO at the critical nexus of the tactical and operational levels of war. Services, as part of the joint community, must narrowly define EBO in a quantifiable, measurable realm. The USAF needs to solve its tactical training/operational campaigning dichotomy by moving toward capabilities-based training. Finally, the services should stop clinging to the antiquated concept of separate and distinct levels of war with minimal similarities where no clear distinction actually exists. These small steps will build synergy between the execution of national policy and the planning that enables it. Such synergy may then aid the evolution toward the seamless continuum necessary for an EBO culture to thrive.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - In 2003 a deadly internal conflict broke out in the Sudanese province of Darfur between the government of Sudan (GoS), government-backed Arab proxy militias known as the Janjaweed, and two rebel insurgent groups ¿ the Sudan Liberation Army/Movement (SLA/M) and the Justice and Equality Movement (JEM). The crisis erupted when the rebel insurgency emerged and demanded an end to chronic economic marginalization, regional development, and power-sharing vis-¿-vis other parts of Arabruled Sudan. The conflict has resulted in 400,000 deaths, more than 2 million forcibly displaced refugees, and approximately 3.5 million men, women, and children reliant on international aid for survival. In 2004, President George W. Bush recognized the atrocities occurring in Darfur as genocide and vowed to quickly end the bloodshed. Unfortunately, American expressions of concern have proven ineffective and inadequate in scope and corresponding decisive actions to stop the killing have yet to materialize. This paper suggests three main factors or spoilers that help explain the Bush Administration¿s unwillingness to intervene directly in Darfur: Chinese interests in Sudan; U.S. post-9/11 security relations with the Sudanese government; and the Bush Administration¿s reluctance to jeopardize a U.S. brokered peace-keeping accord that ended a 22-year-old Sudanese civil war in January 2005. The paper concludes that, regardless of spoilers, the U.S. has the capability to accomplish the following four practical measures to quickly end the genocide in Darfur: strengthen the understaffed African Union (AU) force already in Darfur until a United Nations (U.N.) force can be deployed; push for the immediate deployment of an already-authorized U.N. peacekeeping force; enforce a no-fly zone in the Darfur region of Sudan; and increase humanitarian aid and ensure unfettered access for delivery.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Since the terrible events of 11 September 2001, a tremendous amount of literature has been produced on Islam and Islamic extremism by scholars, the media, and numerous government agencies. The overwhelming majority of these works go to great lengths to paint Islam in an exceptionally favorable light, distancing this 'religion of peace' from the actions of its adherents who perpetrated the attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. In fact, conventional wisdom has clearly embraced the notion that Islamic extremists like Usama bin Laden and his al-Qaeda organization have 'hijacked' Islam by subverting its tenets and twisting them into an excuse to wage war on Jews, Christians, and any other group they deem an adversary. However, even a casual reading of Islam's sacred texts demonstrates that many of the religious convictions that drive bin Laden and his fellow jihadists are rooted in Islamic law and tradition. Contrary to popular belief, Islam is not a monolithic institution. Individual Muslims and religious leaders interpret the Koran and traditions of the Prophet Muhammad differently.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - The increasing severity of threats leads modern air forces to develop ever more complex and more specialized solutions to better solve specific tactical challenges they expect to face such as improved air defenses. The increased complexity of these weapon systems, however, increases the time and cost to field them as well as to adapt them for new missions or threats. At the same time, rapid technological change makes such adaptability more important to counter the increase in threat variety and capability. Furthermore, the increasing rate of technological and geopolitical change undermine the likely accuracy and validity of weapon system requirements written for a notional security environment two decades in the future. This increases the need for more adaptable systems. This relationship between complexity and adaptability can be described as a Complexity-Adaptability Paradox. Current USAF fighter force structure plans could yield a force that, by 2035, lacks sufficient adaptability to cope with the variety and severity of national security threats it faces.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - In 1986, the fiscal year 1987 Defense Authorization Act containing the Nunn-Cohen amendment passed creating United States Special Operations Command (USSOCOM). Among the many authorities it was given, is the requirement to organize, train, and equip Special Operations Forces (SOF). Concomitant to this responsibility was the creation of a funding stream, Major Force Program 11, dedicated solely for the purchase of SOF-peculiar equipment, material, supplies, and services for SOF where there is no Service-common equivalent. From inception, there was no overarching organization charged with adjudication or determination of items that are contentious, or are currently paid for by SOF, but now used as Service-common, and thus should transition. Presently, transition decisions are piecemeal, occurring through mutual agreements between a Service and USSOCOM; binding acquisition decisions; or through budget documents. In an internal audit, USSOCOM found that it is paying for items which meet the definition of Service-common.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Debate has raged on when and how the US should intervene in the affairs of others. Many argue that our policy of intervention has been inconsistent during the l990s. Some argue the US has not done enough, while others argue we are doing too much. Regardless of the perspective taken, there are no clearly articulated criteria or policy to use in determining when the US should intervene in the affairs of another state, a non-state, or a trans- national group in one instance and not in another. The questions concerning intervention and flexing US power are never exactly the same and the answers are always varying shades of gray; much of the recent literature seems to describe and analyze different aspects of the problem. This paper discusses intervention. Specifically, we evaluate the conditions under which the US should intervene in the affairs of another actor or actors with military force. We use moral hazard theory to guide our analysis. Obviously, the US has many ways to intervene when it so chooses economically, diplomatically, militarily, informationally, culturally, officially, unofficially, with government agencies, with non- governmental organizations, and the like. However, military intervention has been and remains the most controversial especially since the end of the Cold War.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - The geographic landscape in the Arctic is rapidly changing, which could allow substantial transportation and resource development in the future. Currently, the international legal framework is not sufficient to handle the sovereignty and resource rights disputes in the region. Increased human activity in the region will exacerbate these disputes, creating significant national security, economic, and environmental implications. Arctic development is at a crossroads in which either competition or cooperation can dictate the region's future. Woefully behind the other Arctic nations in capabilities and regional development, the United States must actively engage Arctic issues.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - CSAF's number one vector for 2010-2011 is, 'to continue to strengthen the Air Force nuclear enterprise.' Realizing many non-nuclear-enterprise-affiliated flag officers and SES civilians were either mid-to-senior captains or junior members of the Civil Service when the Cold War ended, this paper provides instructors with the tools necessary to educate and make conversant all general officer and senior civilians on the Air Force's nuclear enterprise. Using the CAPSTONE (officers) and APEX (civilians) courses as a foundation, respective syllabus architects should add a day to each course to introduce key Air Force and other Service (if so desired) nuclear enterprise topics. For both officers and civilians, this should occur on the USSTRATCOM visitation day. Due to ever-shrinking budgets, time management constraints for senior leaders, and a truly Air Force focus if Sister Services elect not to participate/add curricula, an on-line course could be constructed with personnel completing it upon CAPSTONE/APEX 'graduation.' Instructors and leaders throughout the Air Force could also use such an on-line course to augment existing professional military education and leadership development courses as well. The proposed unclassified version of the course will begin with discussions on Air Force MAJCOM contributions to the nuclear enterprise. Topics will include AFGSC wings, weapon systems, and the roles performed by AMC, AFMC, ACC, AFSPC, and AETC. Remembering that Airmen are the Air Force's most important resource, course attendees will also gain insight into special requirements levied on personnel and nuclear weapons equipment through the PRP and the NWRM programs, respectively. Furthermore, prospective students must also understand how AFGSC provides forces to USSTRATCOM, how nuclear weapons are targeted and executed, and why a triad of weapon systems and capabilities instead of a dyad or monad is vital to the national defense.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - The purpose of this paper is to investigate the next 50 years of space power by contemplating the future space superiority challenges that the US military will face. Although it will address the larger aspect of space power as it relates to all US space sectors and instruments of national power, the paper is primarily concerned with strategic implications and future space superiority challenges as they relate to the US military. After providing an overview of scenario planning, the paper uses a scenario planning process to frame the focal issue of space superiority, describe driving forces that influence this issue, develop four plausible future scenarios, use those scenarios to outline some space superiority implications and strategies for the US military, and finally discuss some leading indicators that may help provide early warning of whether a particular future scenario is actually approaching. Scenarios developed in this paper can be used as a framework for an interagency and multi-disciplinary 'strategic conversation' on space superiority strategies to help ensure US freedom of action in space for the next 50 years.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Since the end of the cold war, the United States (US) significantly reduced its overseas basing structure and personnel. These factors increased the importance of AMC's aircraft and enroute structure to ensure the US can project power anywhere, at anytime. To accomplish these tasks, AMC builds a 'virtual' air mobility superhighway across the globe to move forces where needed. Traditionally, interdiction is thought of as an action the US does to enemy forces prior to them reaching the battlefield, However, little thought is given to how interdiction may be used against US forces to reduce its power projection capability. Some non-state actors, such as AI Qaeda, possess the means to interdict the air mobility superhighway using techniques from the emergence of fourth generation warfare (4GW).This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Air Force Special Operations Command (AFSOC) today faces a critical shortage of airlift capacity. The Air Mobility Command (AMC) system that should ideally support AFSOC's airlift requirements is saturated with the demands of the post-9/11 world, so AFSOC cannot always get airlift support when and where it needs it. Ten years ago AFSOC got almost all the support it asked for, and it was able to fill minor gaps by using its special-purpose C-130s, including its MC-130H Talon II. But these aircraft and their crews are now critically overworked at the same time, and for the same reasons, as AMC's fleet. Further, the low-density nature of AFSOC's C-130 fleet means that increased maintenance requirements affect a significant percentage of the force, thereby decreasing mission capability. Though the concept would have been doctrinally unsupportable ten years ago, it is now necessary to build organic airlift capability into AFSOC.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - From 1918 to 1990 airlift advocates used the speed and range of aircraft to develop an en route mobility system capable of maneuvering joint forces on a global scale. However, the demand for air mobility agility exceeded capabilities in the 1990s. Instead of pursuing aircraft performance improvements, the Air Force developed a dependence on intermediate basing that stagnated mobility capabilities. From 2001 to 2005 mobility operations in the Global War On Terror (GWOT) saturated the en route system, and uncovered the limits of American mobility. The source of this 'mobility plateau' is linked to a doctrinal dependency on intermediate basing that diverts resources from advanced transport development. The 2006 QDR projects some potential gains, but falls short of achieving appreciable improvements in agility for joint forces. Transforming American airlift requires a new way of thinking to build doctrine that increases global agility. In the next 10 years, Effects-Based Mobility (EBM) will shape doctrine and enable leaders to focus on generating effects for joint forces at all levels of war. Most importantly, EBM will enable leaders to think beyond nominal improvements and focus on programs that significantly increase global agility. In 30 years, EBM will truly enable 'global maneuver' and provide a new doctrine capable of triggering innovation in the aerospace industry.EBM fulfills the Headquarters Air Mobility Command Doctrine and Policy Division (HQ AMC/A5) request to develop new doctrine for air mobility. In order to tailor activities for the joint fight, the author merged Effects-Based Operations (EBO) with air mobility doctrine to develop the EBM concept. The author also applied modern techniques used in the aerospace industry to analyze air mobility systems. The results of this study propose EBM as a doctrinal method of significantly increasing global maneuver capability.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Air Force Drawdown - What will happen to the Air Force The United States Air Force's downsizing will make it difficult to sustain it current Operational Tempo (OPSTEMPO). When you remove 40,000 people in a five year period, unit readiness will suffer dramatically. The drawdown is an effort to recapitalize their weapon systems. The Secretary of the Air Force has testified to the Senate Armed Services Committee that the Air Force needs to transform to a smaller, leaner and more capable force to face future opponents. There are voluntary and involuntary programs available to pare the force to 316,000 personnel. If voluntary programs are ineffective, the Air Force will turn to involuntary means. This drawdown will affect the following areas of the Air Force: recruiting, retention and mission readiness. These three areas are important to the sustainment of the Air Force. Even though they are in a drawdown, they still need to recruit. If they fail to recruit, then a 'bathtub' will be created that will last for ten to fifteen years. The question they need to ask themselves is 'Why would anyone want to join an organization with the knowledge that the will be asked to leave two or three years later ' Whenever you are hired for a job, you can always be fired. However, why apply for a job if you knew you were going to be fired or let go. Additionally, they need to recruit individuals who can assist in their goal of recapitalizing the force. By focusing recruiting to people with technical type of degrees (i.e., engineering, meteorology), they can ensure that their research and development teams are well equipped and ready to design new weapons systems.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Cyberspace is a growth industry for the U.S. Air Force. This study should be used to provoke thoughtful discussions about the future of cyberspace integration into military operations. The paper attempts to explain the complexities associated with defining command relationships in the realm of cyberspace. It explores the difficulties a joint force commander (JFC) or combatant commander (CCDR) confronts when employing cyber capabilities and forces. Command relationships for cyberspace forces need to be developed and documented as part of doctrine immediately to aid in showcasing how the JFC or CCDR can utilize all cyberspace capabilities. This will also aid in promoting the new Air Force Major Command (MAJCOM) organization called Air Force Cyber Command (AFCYBER) to a wider military audience. Parallels are drawn to other command relationships structures, but it is important to note that integration of cyberspace forces will be unique. This paper is limited to a qualitative study of command relationships and doctrine. The proposed command relationship chart is adequate to begin discussions, but omits an important interface piece with national agencies. Also, integration issues within the Air Operations Center are currently not completely addressed. The goal of the author is to add some clarity to the study of cyberspace by proposing a command relationship structure the Air Force should consider for use in its cyberspace doctrine. By incorporating these relationships into doctrine, the cyberspace community will gain legitimacy and a foothold from which to advocate for resources in this growth industry that will affect the way the United States goes to war.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - The development of strategy and the provision of strategic guidance are essential to the long-term success of any organization. This is especially true for massive bureaucratic organizations like the United States Department of Defense (DOD), which need strategy to align the purpose, processes, and resources in a system that spans the globe, covers multiple years into the future, and guards the security interests of the nation. Unfortunately, DOD has engaged in almost two decades of strategic wandering since the conclusion of the Cold War. This research effort focuses on the causes for this astrategic approach by evaluating the absence of grand strategy at the national level, the resulting misalignment and distortion that has occurred in the defense policy, planning, programming, budgeting, and acquisition processes, and the role DOD has played in fostering this strategic shortfall. The critique utilizes the expected fiscal austerity and complex threat environment of the next decade argue that the current unconstrained strategic approach is unsustainable. DOD must desist in its passive approach to strategy and, instead, drive the strategic development process, execute a genuine strategic review, foster a new value culture within the department that focuses on national loyalty and moral courage instead of parochialism and status quo, and advocate for a new roles and missions review for the Services and Defense Agencies.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
