Good vid! It seemed that you didn't cover "combined arms" or ground support directly as a specific function of air power. I'm thinking of how both D-day and Barbarossa began to some extent with air power and quickly transformed into air support for ground forces. Maybe you covered it in some way but I missed it. At the operational level, many operations weren't attempted until air superiority had been achieved. The invasion of England comes to mind.

Would you list the references used in the presentation. Need to buy some books. Good presentation.

close air support is mentioned and also explained, which is a part of the attack role. The 4 roles are very abstract, ground support would be too specific and too "land warfare focused" as well.
