Potential Career Paths

Modules

The advent of air power has radically altered and shaped the conduct, scope and nature of war in the modern world. At a strategic level the interaction between state, industry and society during war has been profoundly altered by air power, with air forces providing an increasing threat to the structure of nations, whilst making huge demands on the abilities of states to wage war. The actual conduct of war has also been reshaped by air power with control of air space long considered a vital prerequisite to the effective conduct of war fighting. This module will explore these issues by analysing the theoretical and conceptual underpinnings of air power, alongside historical case studies to highlight key issues. The module will form the starting point for the course.
