If air superiority is crucial to modern warfare, then the U.S. Air Force is not up to the task. That's the gist of a detailed look by the Mitchell Institute for Aerospace Studies. Among the findings, the Air Force is short by, get this, two thousand pilots. The Air Force itself is what the report calls the oldest, smallest and least ready in history. More details now from Mitchell Senior Resident Fellow Heather Penney. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at
