Article Abstract:

The U.S. naval aviation has set new standards for weight of effort, persistence, precision, and joint integration during coalition combat operation in Afghanistan and Iraq since the commencement of Operation ENDURING FREEDOM (OEF) in October 2001. The growing disparity between the importance of carrier aviation's support of joint combat operations and its place in the future U.S. military force structure has to be reverted to avoid difficult budget-drive decisions.
