Whether the United States Air Force (USAF), the Royal Air Force (RAF) or many other Air Forces, strategic bombing was advertised as a war winning mission. However, behind this mission there was the desire to establish independence from the Army and Navy and decision-makers often interpreted reality to suit their needs. Join Chris as he dives deep into a story about independence, perceptions and technical and tactical innovation in air force history.- Check out my books -Ju 87 Stuka - http://stukabook.comSTG-44 Assault Platoon - http://sturmzug.com German Panzer Company 1941 - http://www.hdv470-7.comAchtung Panzer?

Preparing for the LAST war: Flawed Western Air Power Military Aviation History 2023-03-02 | How do Air Forces stay future proof and prepare for a future conflict if all their experiences lie in the past? This question is an important one considering the Russo-Ukrainian war.

First Year of War: What We Learn from Ukraine Military Aviation History 2023-02-23 | On 24 February 2022 Russia escalated the war in Ukraine. With a direct attack on Kyiv, Russian troops advanced and the Russian Air Force (VKS) flew numerous missions to strike Ukrainian radar and air defense. While the attack stalled and was beaten back, the war dragged on to now a full year. Now locked in a stalemate in the air, both sides maintain a strategy of air denial. After 364 days, we have learned and unlearned much about the air war over Ukraine and will continue to draw lessons from it.

Ukrainian Soldier explains how he uses First-Person kamikaze drones - (FPV drones) Military Aviation History 2023-02-16 | FPV (First person view) drones are used in Ukraine as 'kamikaze' or 'sniper drones'. Primarily aiming to take out armored vehicles and fortified positions, these small drones carry a repurposed explosive device such as a RKG anti-tank grenades or RPG warheads. I speak to Borys and Andrii from the 'Angry birds' unit about their FPV drone, how it works, the advantages and disadvantages, and what it is used for.Quoting Angry Birds:"We are looking to fully fund our UAV production and humanitarian projects.
