  • More about The Changing Face of Aerial Warfare: 1940-Present Day

Air power alone can win a war, but it has been challenged by the development of smart missiles and other technologies. Anthony Tucker-Jones charts the evolution of aerial warfare from 1940 to the present day.

Format: Paperback / softback
Publication date: 28 September 2023
Publisher: The History Press Ltd


Air power alone cannot win a war, as demonstrated by the failures of air attacks in Vietnam and the limited success of air strikes in Iraq and Libya. However, air power has played a significant role in recent conflicts, particularly in regime changes. The introduction of the jet engine and the microchip has transformed aerial warfare, with carpet bombing now a global positioning system and laser pinpointed strikes using precision-guided munitions. The threats have also evolved, with smart missiles from half a world away becoming the primary enemy. In this compelling study, celebrated defence expert Anthony Tucker-Jones charts the remarkable evolution of aerial warfare from 1940 to the present day.
