A doctrine is commonly a systematical segregation of past experiences for the standardization of present planning in view of future applications. In virtue of this, the SLAF “Air Power Doctrine” was formulated with the lessons learnt over the unique experiences of employment of air power in Sri Lankan context through the 30 years long internal conflict. This is a supplement to the existing Air Force Doctrine.
