Berg, USAF, Chief, Professional Journals Features Global Power Requires a Global, Persistent Air-to-Air Capability : 47 Lt Col Bruce D. Cox, USAF If the A ir Force wants trite air superiority, it must emphasize the projection of air-to-air airpower at intercontinental distances The author analyzes trade-offs among aircraft range and maneuverability, crew endurance, and the use of manned versus remotely piloted aircraft. Closing the Irregular Warfare Air Capability Gap I 57 The Missing Puzzle Piece: Rugged Utility Aircraft and Personnel Lt Col George H. Hock Jr., USAF In the midst of two counterinsurgencies, the Air Force has struggled to build irregular warfare (IW) and partner nation capability from scratch Using lessons learned from the 6th Special Operations Squad- ron, the author explores ways to improve JW-trained forces and the equipment needed to support devel- oping nations Air Component Campaign Planning I 6 9 Beyond Conflict and Kinetics Lt Col David Moeller, USAF Air Force doctrine emphasizes planning for kinetic operations but lacks a clear methodology for plan- ning a full spectrum of operations. Tb fill this ‘doctrinal gap,' the author advocates developing a com- prehensive focus on long-term state interaction across such a spectrum of operations, thereby meeting the objectives o f joint force commanders. Developing US European Command’s Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance Strategy for Fiscal Years 2010 through 2015 I 81 Lt Col Kevin M. Coyne, USAF The military's policy of using most of its scarce intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) platforms to support US Central Command's operations adversely affects ISR assistance to other com- batant commands. The author analyzes ISR operations in US European Command and proposes ways to offset future shortfalls through greater integration o f the ISR capabilities o f US allies. ___ _____ _______ Departments 22 !

    U N I T E D S T A T E S A I R F O R C E COLONEL JEFFREY A. PHILLIPS Colonel Jeffrey A. Phillips is the Commander, 67th Cyberspace Wing, Joint Base San Antonio-Lackland, Texas. In this role Colonel Phillips leads more than 2,600 Airmen, civilians, and contract personnel across four operations groups with 19 squadrons at seven locations worldwide. He ensures the readiness and employment of Airmen to conduct network operations, defense, attack, and exploitation in service of the Air Force, combatant commands, and national agencies.

  • Volu Lexicon
    Volunteer University Lexicon Access There are two options to access the modules required to advance in the Senior Member Education and Training Program: the AXIS learning management system and Volunteer University (VolU) trained instructors. When a member joins CAP, the Level 1 modules are automatically loaded into AXIS. Former members with a break in service may need to email the [email protected] email address to get Level 1 modules loaded. When a member advances to the next level the automated modules are loaded into AXIS automatically. The exception is Level 2. A member must choose a path before Level 2 automated modules will load. If a member wishes to participate in Online training, the member must request a cohort. When a member is assigned to a cohort and the cohort begins, the moderated modules will be loaded into AXIS. Participation in Onsite training, either in person or via distance technology, does not require a cohort. The materials for onsite modules (study guides, exercise instructions, etc.) are provided by those facilitating the training and on the Volunteer University website. ACSC Air Command and Staff College An Air Force Professional Military Education School for field grade officers, completion of which earns equivalency credit for some modules in several levels of the Senior Member Education and Training Program. See Professional Military Education. CAP members may be eligible to take ACSC through Air University Distance Learning. See AUDL. Assessment The methods (quiz, forum, worksheet, memorandum, report, etc.) used to determine if a student has met the Desired Learning Objectives for a module. Some assessments are graded automatically, and others require an instructor to grade them.
