Desert Storm and Beyond! On January 17, 1991, Lockheed F-117 stealth fighters launched Operation Desert Storm, the opening blow of a campaign that would forever change aerial warfare. Over the next 100 days, coalition forces blanketed the air space over Iraq, employing a sophisticated arsenal of weapons and electronic countermeasures that thwarted every attempt by the Iraqis to effectively fight back. It was an entirely new era in warfare, but in many ways, Desert Storm was only the beginning. The new generation of precision munitions that shocked the world in 1991 has led to a technological explosion in weapons development. This documentary examines the revolution in the application of air power that began with Desert Storm.
