Air Force Issues Doctrine on Homeland Operations
The U.S. Air Force has produced a new doctrinal document (pdf) that articulates its role in “homeland operations.”
“This document describes how our Air Force organizes and employs air and space power in operations in the homeland.”
“It focuses on how we support civilian agencies through the appropriate combatant commander in a variety of operations, such as neutralizing terrorist threats, responding to natural disasters, and supporting the traditional mission of homeland defense.”
