Air Supremacy

Air supremacy is the dominance of one country's air forces over another, ensuring uncontested control of the skies. It means that the victorious side can operate freely without interference from enemy aircraft or air defenses, allowing them to conduct missions like surveillance, ground attacks, and logistics safely. This dominance often gives a significant strategic advantage, enabling control of land, sea, and air operations below. Achieving air supremacy requires effective advanced aircraft, radar systems, and tactics to suppress or destroy enemy air capabilities, thereby securing air dominance for an extended period during military conflicts.
