JV 2010 defines four operational concepts, providing the services specific areas to concentrate efforts in order to achieve full spectrum dominance of the battlespace across the range of military operations. Precision engagement is both a JV 2010 operational concept and an Air Force core competency, denoting its importance to the use of airpower. If precision engagement applies across the spectrum of conflict, more detail is required to specifically apply this to military operations other than war (MOOTW). The basis of continued current and future military involvement in MOOTW begins at the strategic level, from the National Security Strategy through the National Military Strategy and joint and service doctrine. This doctrinal examination provides details of how the operational concept of precision engagement of offensive airpower is applicable to specific types of MOOTW. Analysis of the relevant doctrinal concepts from the operational level provides specific details on what the USAF can achieve with offensive airpower, combined with precision engagement in MOOTW. MOOTW require a high level of precision due to the political consequences that must be considered when using military might to coerce a political settlement in a conflict short of full scale war. The use of precision offensive airpower in MOOTW will provide the NCA with the leverage needed to achieve national objectives, while minimizing risks.
