Concept explores improving air-land integration in the Indo-Pacific, highlighting military tactics and operations.
Current military trends are challenging how control of the air is exploited to achieve air-land integration. The air-ground littoral (AGL) offers a concept to exploit and coordinate the lower altitudes of the air domain for land manoeuvre. This fills a gap in theory for how both air forces and armies employ airpower contributions.The AGL is prominent in the emerging reconnaissance-strike tactics regime that is shaping modern land warfare. The AGL is applicable to Australia’s context in the Indo-Pacific, noting the region’s geographic and threat considerations. Australia should continue to explore the AGL as a concept for improving air-land integration.
