Original publisher: Washington, D.C. (P.O. Box 37050, Washington 20013) : The Office, [1996]. OCLC Number: (OCoLC)35968185 Subject: Air power -- United States. Excerpt: ... Chapter 1 Introduction 1 CAS. conducting Third, some systems used for close support missions can perform multiple roles and therefore have not been developed solely on the basis of close support requirements. Fourth, changes in equipment and doctrine, such as the development and use of Army attack helicopters as maneuver units, have greatly altered the complexity and scope of warfighting operations, including close support. Finally, because the need for close support may arise unexpectedly, each service seeks a certain degree of independence in its close support systems since there is no assurance that other services ' weapons can be made available to respond in time. Table 1.1 shows the inventory of service assets that can be used for close support missions that existed in fiscal years 1990 and 1994 and the inventory projected for fiscal year 2001. Some of the assets shown also perform other missions such as interdiction, reconnaissance, or air superiority in addition to providing close air support. 1 Prior to 1993, the Army had not been assigned CAS as a primary responsibility.
