N2  - This paper examines the roles that offensive air power can conduct in support of counter-insurgency warfare and examines the strengths and weaknesses of these roles in creating the necessary effect. It also analyses the employment of air power from an operational perspective and brings out the pros and cons of utilising platforms, sensors and weapons to support a counter-insurgency campaign. Ultimately, the impact of the air power contribution will relate to how well it supports the fundamentals of counter-insurgency warfare
