Strategic Bombing Survey

The Strategic Bombing Survey was a study conducted by the United States after World War II to assess the impact of bombing campaigns on enemy nations, particularly Germany and Japan. Analysts evaluated the effectiveness of aerial bombardment on military targets, industrial production, and civilian morale. The survey aimed to understand how these bombings contributed to the war's outcome and what lessons could be learned for future military strategy. The findings helped shape post-war military doctrine and influenced international perspectives on the ethics and effectiveness of strategic bombing in warfare.
