Operational sustainability is key in modern warfare. Adversaries are increasingly targeting the U.S. Air Force’s infrastructure, transportation systems, and cyberspace with the objective of disrupting our missions. Rather than reacting to challenges caused by interruptions after they occur, the U.S. Air Force has been developing proactive strategies to safeguard military operations.
Demonstrating the USAF's ability to overcome challenges from the Berlin Airlift to sustaining the massive coalition force during Desert Storm and the Afghanistan evacuation, all serve as a historic testament to the impact of logistics during adversity. And now, in the current strategic environment, logistics continues to be the cornerstone of airpower, requiring a shift in focus and reoptimization efforts. Logistics will remain a great strength of American Airpower.
