| dc.description |
Strategic airlift remains a critical supporting capability that should be achieved, maintained and improved. This capability ensures the ability to deploy and sustain military forces across possible distant battlefields. The paper analyses the growing strategic airlift capabilities gap between operational needs and current realities, and underlines the need for an enhanced strategic airlift capability to meet current and future NATO alliance needs. By analyzing requirements against the existing/potential solutions, this paper further ponders over options like the organic national capability, partnerships such as the Strategic Airlift Consortium (SAC) or leasing aircraft through a venture such as the Strategic Airlift Interim Solution (SALIS). The paper also evaluates the feasibility of applying these solutions to European Union airlift needs. |
