In recent years, historians of airpower have become increasingly sophisticated in analysing the conceptual and organizational facets of aerial warfare. Some local military thinkers even mentioned the importance of airpower. He throws some features of the landscape into relief, notably ecological impacts of empire, tensions between city and countryside and effects of the changing balance between naval and airpower. Yet most of the scholarly books on airpower and armour give great weight to nontechnological factors. For most people, airpower is something of an esoteric concept, both mysterious and powerful.
