In designing and organizing a campaign, a commander uses movement to provide his forces with the advantages needed to win battles and exploit the opportunities provided by these victories. A key aspect of operational art is the movement of air power so fighter/attack aircraft can fly enough effective sorties when and where they are needed to help win a campaign. Such movement depends on the availability and operability of air bases which, in turn, is largely determined by aircraft runway requirements. Review of World War II, Korea, and Southeast Asia shows how important air bases availability and operability has been to the effectiveness of fighter/attack aircraft. This same review also shows how increasing aircraft runway requirements have made ensuring air base availability and operability more difficult. Looking to the future, the threat posed by the Soviets promises to make air base availability and operability even more important to success. To make it easier to provide air bases, aircraft runway requirements must be reduced by focusing on the landing phase. Runway required for landing can be reduced by quickly stopping an aircraft after it lands or by slowing the aircraft before it lands. V/STOL technology offers a particularly effective way of reducing runway requirements because it enables an aircraft to be stopped prior to landing. The value of aircraft using V/STOL technology can best be appreciated if evaluations of aircraft performance apply a campaign rather than a tactical perspective. (EDC).

Airpower provides support to ground forces by applying elements of operational art. Air operational art formed between the beginning of World War I and the end of World War II. The Air Corps Tactical School developed and taught the principles of attack and pursuit aviation for the support of ground forces. These principles include all the elements of operational fires and operational protection and are known today as interdiction and counterair. These doctrines were tested in exercises with the Army between 1931 and 1934 but not in combat until World War II. The doctrines were combat-tested soon after America's entry into North Africa. From November 1942 until May 1943 heavy, medium and fighter bombers successfully applied operational fires to Axis lines of communication and were accompanied by pursuit aircraft which provided operational protection. The interdiction of Axis supply and isolation of forces in Africa helped force the Axis retreat from Africa in May, 1943. Beginning in April, 1944, Allied bombers and fighters began attacking targets in northern France, particularly the rail network. These operational fires successfully isolated the Operation Overlord landing sites by destroying and delaying German supplies and reinforcements. Allied aircraft provided operational protection over the landing areas on D-Day, although there was little Luftwaffe resistance. The interdiction continued after the invasion, and was decisive in delaying reinforcements and in facilitating the breakout from the lodgement.
