This achievement rested on technology, which both increased bombing accuracy and decreased the effectiveness of enemy defenses, and the reexamination and reapplication of traditional strategic bombing theory by USAF planning officers.  Alone of the world’s air forces the USAF possessed a 2,000 pound bomb designed to penetrate many feet of hardened concrete and steel. Its use destroyed most heavily protected and important Iraqi targets.  American anti-radar missiles intimidated Iraqi radar operators, leaving middle and upper altitudes free for Coalition air operations.  American stealth technology, in the form of the F-117A fighter gave the attacker virtual invulnerability while leaving the enemy defenseless.  Behind this new technology lay the USAF planning officers, who laid out their offensive in a logical manner designed to minimize both friendly and enemy casualties while excising Iraq’s military potential.  The offensive, of course, did not achieve one hundred percent perfection, but it carried out its goals in a manner sure to make any future aggressor state hesitate to call such destruction down upon itself.

This is a narrative drawn from the era of the Southeast Asian conflict, detailing a unique event in that lengthy struggle. The event was called LINEBACKER ll, a nickname like thousands of others, used to identify an operation, project, or mission associated with military affairs. It differed from others, however, in its execution and outcome; that it stands alone.. For the first time in contemporary warfare, heavy jet bombers were employed in their designed role to conduct strategic operations against the warmaking capacity of a hostile nation. This is the story of the Strategic Air Command's participation in LINEBACKER II. It addresses the efforts of a complex mixture of Air Force and sister operations, with all the services working in common toward a specific goal.
Herein is described the impact of LINEBACKER ll on those in command, plus those in operations, maintenance and support who undergirded the effort, and the crewmembers.
