Reconnaissance

WWI had many factors deciding the outcome of the war. Some of which were the war on the ground, in the water, and in the air. The war in the air was significant because it provided reconnaissance, carpet bombing, and dogfighting. "In the summer of 1914, the airplane was less than eleven years old" (SparkNotes. "World War I (1914-1919)". http://www.sparknotes.com/history/european/ww1/section5.rhtml. Accessed April 24, 2016.). WWI was one of the first instances in warfare where aircraft was used, in the early stages of WWI, the military strategists realized that aircraft could be useful for reconnaissance and could spy on their enemies with the use of reconnaissance planes. In WWI, carpet bombing was a new strategy of war and was used very…

(U) The actual full utilization of aerial reconnaissance using heavier than air platforms occurred during World War I. The use of this new technology aided field commanders, and gave strategic planners unprecedented insights into enemy dispositions, capabilities and extrapolated battlefield intentions. The British employment of aerial reconnaissance was mainly tactical during World War I and was used to map out the battlefield by cartographically plotting out the Forward Edge of the Battlefield…

The Navy Seals are the most elite and feared people in the military. From Sea, Air, and Land, is what the Navy Seal stands for they train for them all and can fight anywhere in any condition. In 1962, the Navy seals were made by JFK. If you are really looking to be a seal you will have to go through tons of difficult training that will push you to your limits. The training is split into three incredibly hard phases that you have to go through if you plan to be a seal, and these phases are not…

Soldiers in the 35P Military Occupational Specialty (MOS) face many challenges as the progress through their language school and Advanced Individual Training (AIT). They spend six to 18 months focusing all their attention on learning a second language at an accelerated pace and when they have accomplished that daunting task they are sent to Goodfellow Air Force Base to learn the technical aspect of their MOS, usually another three or four months of training. By the time a 35P Soldier arrives at…

NASA Overview The Mars Surveyor Program (MSP) was managed under the cheaper, better, faster paradigm at the National Aeronautic and Space Administration (NASA). This corporate culture created an environment which challenged NASA engineers to develop innovative, cost saving processes when designing and developing projects. This paradigm did have drawbacks though; putting too much emphasis on decreasing cost, and failing to integrate risk management in their projects. Ultimately, this mindset led…

What is Chemical reconnaissance? Chemical reconnaissance is a type of military reconnaissance for the early detection of the presence of chemicals, biological, radiation, and nuclear. There are three modes of Chemical reconnaissance mounted, dismounted, and aerial. Dismounted recon is conducted by small combat arms or special crews. One of this special crews is Chemical Recon Detachment. This paper will discuss the purpose of Chemical reconnaissance. It will also give a small description of the…

for the purposes of reconnaissance (Marion 66). There was good reason for this ambition; obvious tactical advantages are available to countries who employ aerial reconnaissance as a measure to direct their military forces. Naturally, as aviation technologies improved…

Operation Anaconda- Task Orginazation Operation Anaconda should be looked at as a success for the Allied troops. The troops succeeded in greatly reducing the footprint of enemy Soldiers and disrupting their operations, and although task organization is vital to any mission success, at times this appeared to be lacking. Not only does well calculated task organization increase the likelihood of success, but it greatly mitigates the risks associated with the mission. With better reconnaissance,…

ground. World War I was the first time that airplanes were used on a large scale. At the start of World War One, aircraft were very basic and crude. By the time World War One had ended, aircraft had become far more sophisticated and had differentiated. The first use of airplanes in World War I was for reconnaissance. The airplanes would fly above…
