The Lessons and Non-Lessons of the Air

Anthony H. Cordesman, Senior Fellow for Strategic Assessment Center

"NATO's problems were further compounded by the weather limitations of laser-guided weapons and the weather-visibility limits of most optical sensors".

"NATO cancelled 50% of all sorties due to low visibility."
