Strategic Bombardment

Strategic bombardment refers to the military strategy of targeting an enemy's key infrastructure, industries, and logistical centers to weaken their ability to wage war. Unlike tactical bombing, which focuses on battlefield targets, strategic bombardment aims to disrupt the enemy's economy and morale by destroying factories, supply lines, and transportation systems. This approach was notably used during World War II, where bombers targeted cities and production sites to hasten victory. The idea is that by crippling the enemy's resources, you can shorten the conflict and achieve your military objectives more effectively.
