The Air Commanders’ Perspectives: Airpower in Afghanistan 2005–10 provides a rare, senior-level examination of NATO and U.S. air operations during the Afghanistan conflict. Edited by Dag Henriksen, this volume compiles firsthand perspectives from nine general officers who served in key airpower leadership roles between 2005 and 2010.

Written after their retirement, the contributors speak candidly about what worked, what didn’t, and how joint and combined air forces can operate more effectively in counterinsurgency and counterterrorism environments. Rather than advocating a single strategy, the book delivers objective analysis, lessons learned, and practical recommendations grounded in real operational experience.

Published by the Air Force Research Institute / Air University Press, this is a serious academic and professional reference intended for military leaders, defense analysts, war college students, and collectors of modern military studies.
