This is the book. Have fun reading it.

It takes some time to load, have patience.

If you find it difficult understanding it reading the first time or if it is the first time you are learning about ACM tactics then start from here:

pls post it in the right section - this is for PAF ONLY!!!

Understand that this is the PAF section, but this historic booklet applies to all air forces from the days of the gun/cannon only.

It is famous in that it was probably the fist "Instruction book" for ACM of any detail ever written, at least in the West. The material is fascinating, but also very dated, and applies only to pre-missile combat.

Blesse's angled "fighting wing" position for a wingman is long gone, and has been supplanted with a line-abreast spread of 1 to 2 nm.
