@near_blind…have you been reading Joint Pub 3-01 and Joint Pub 3-32 again?
(I’m going to wait until they come out on Audio books.)
From JP 3-01: “…enemy IADS need to be analyzed in depth to neutralize or avoid enemy strengths and exploit enemy weaknesses.”
…and from JP 3-32, “Effective sensor and combat systems management includes:…(4) Ability to launch one’s own weapon first and then exploit the tactical advantage gained as the opponent is forced into a defensive posture (subject to rules of engagement [ROE]);”
Which is essentially what you wrote.
