Marine aviation, as well as military aviation in general, has had a long and illustrious history steeped in tradition and innovation. During the early days in Nicaragua, hostile units wore no distinguishing uniform, and from the air one group of men looked much like another. An aviator could not always be sure that the village below him, which looked like any other collection of huts, was actually a bandit stronghold. During Operation Desert Shield/Desert Storm, hostile units were entrenched in bunkers, buildings, and camouflaged tanks, and from the air they were identified, plotted, and attacked. An aviator was not only usually sure of the village below but of the specific building within the village. Thus we see aviation emerging from an age of guessing to an age of certainty. This certainty was made possible by a technological revolution that will give new direction to the deployment and employment of Marine aviation at the turn of the century.
