  • Overview

    The lavishly illustrated story of Strategic Air Command in the 1980s. Take a step inside the day-to-day operations.

    ‘Fighter pilots make movies, bomber pilots make history’ - or so the bomber pilots say, anyway…

    Strategic Air Command held a constant nuclear-armed vigil, ready to launch nuclear war at a moment’s notice 24 hours a day. SAC was responsible for two of the three components of the Nuclear Triad – manned strategic bombers and land-based intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs), alongside the Navy’s SLBMs. Also responsible for the USAF’s strategic reconnaissance aircraft, SAC maintained a large fleet of tankers to support its bombers and spy planes.

    After a drawdown of strength in the aftermath of the Vietnam War, SAC rebuilt its strength throughout the 1980s as part of a wider revitalization of the US armed forces under President Reagan. New advanced bombers, tankers and ICBMs joining the fleet and with the promise of new stealth aircraft under development.

    Take a step inside the day-to-day operations of SAC in the 1980s.
