Its manuals on basic doctrine the findings and teachings of tne Nation's leading aupower specialists have called this medium space since the first air doctrine booklet (AFM was published in early 1953. The nature of the medium of space gives to air lorces a versatility not common to suiface issue of the forces, said the manual. It should be remembeied that long before 1933 the Air Force was working on problems to be met by both men and vehicles operating in and above the at- mosphere. The primary reponsibil- ity it had been assigned by the Government for the Nations of- fensive and defensive air opera- tions uemanded this kind of con- in April 1354, the allows the air forces maximum opportunities for dispersal, and freedom of concentration, maneuver, and permits unparalleled observation of any point on the Earth's surface. in Enlaigcd and republished 2 1955, the latent AFM states that the medium in which air forces operate pace is an indivisible field of activity. This medium in combination with the charactenstics of air vehicles, invests air forces with the great flexibility that is the basis of their strength. For this flexibility to be exploited fully, the air forces must be responsive at all levels of opeiation to employment as a single, aggiegate instrument. Boundless Region F'or yean, space", to the Air Force, had meant the boundless region beyond the Faith's surface in which the air aim was flying ever higher, year by year. Then in 1957 came the first sputcentration. and nik. space captured the m 194i the Air (F'or example: Force contracted for the foreiun- - public interest seeming to many ner of the Atlas ICBM and had people a new region that had except in scicontracted stud.es for the anti- - never before medium ICBM.

Maximum Opportunities There i," of course, no dividing ual stated that the medium of line between air'' and space. d man-spa- -- fut ' exi-te- d It is a continuous medium, Including the Earths atmosphere and the endless reaches beyond it. To make this fact clear the Air Force adopted a new word that would embody the idea of air and space as being a single medium. That word was aerospace. The Air Force defines aerospace as the total space beyond the Earth's surface' which is the same concept of the Air Force operational medium it was explaining in early 1953. Same Breakthrough However, the same kind of tech-- n o o g ic a breakthrough that seemed to split the concept of an indiv isable medium of space beyond the Earth's surface are now uniting it again. Already, piloted aerospace vehicles such as the 5 and Dyna-Soa- r, are being developed to operate both in the atmopshere neai the Earth and in the region where some Earth satellites orbit. e Also, our strategic missiles are a necessary part of all experiments in space. The fact that air and space comprise a single undivided operational medium is actually being demonstrated. It is becoming clearer to everyone now that aerospace ie only another word for sky limitiese vault of the 1 1 X-1- surface-to-surfac- th! |
